Abstract
Since nodular PLCA may have a cutaneous presentation similar to that of primary systemic amyloidosis, evaluation for systemic amyloidosis is necessary. Treatment of amyloidosis is difficult. Radiotherapy appears ineffective in treating this type of primary cutaneous amyloidosis, and surgical treatment, where possible, is a good option, especially with MMS, which allows both controlled excision and minimal margins.
