Cutaneous B cell pseudolymphoma (CBPL), or cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia, is the most common pseudolymphoma. It typically responds well to local treatment and follows a benign course. Herein, we describe the unique case of a patient with CBPL that was refractory to a variety of treatments, with subsequent response to rituximab followed by methotrexate. This case explores the complex interplay of T and B lymphocytes, and the potential role of perifollicular T cells in treatment resistant CBPL. Further, it describes the additive therapeutic effect of rituximab and methotrexate to target both B cell and T cell populations in CBPL, a strategy already employed in a number of other conditions.
