Description
Summary:Jessner lymphocytic infiltration is a disease characterized by a histopathological lymphocytic infiltration presenting with papules and plaques. The disease is diagnosed with biopsy via histopathologically showing the cutaneous lymphocytic infiltration. A 49-year-old male patient presented to dermatology outpatient clinic with redness and swelling in both ear lobes. The dermatologic examination showed erythematous, edematous and soft papules in the left post auricular region and in both ear lobes. The skin biopsy applied on the lesion revealed CD3 (+) T lymphocytes and the patient was diagnosed with Jessner lymphocytic infiltration. We present this case due to fact that bilateral Jessner infiltration in the ear lobes is a rare pathology. J Clin Exp Invest 2014; 5 (2): 313-315 Jessner lenfositik infiltrasyonu klinik olarak asemptomatik papül ve plaklarla, histopatolojik olarak da lenfositik infiltrasyonla karakterize bir hastalıktır. Hastalığın tanısı biyopsi ile histopatolojik olarak deride lenfositik infiltrasyonun gösterilmesi ile konmaktadır. Kırk dokuz yaşında erkek hasta dermatoloji polikliniğine her iki kulak memesinde kızarıklık ve kabarıklık şikâyeti ile başvurdu. Hastanın dermatolojik muayenesinde bilateral kulak memesi ve sol postauriküler bölgede eritemli, ödemli, yumuşak kıvamlı, papüller mevcuttu. Lezyonun deri biyopsisinde histopatolojik olarak CD3 (+) T lenfositler görüldü ve hastaya Jessner lenfositik infiltrasyonu tanısı kondu. Jessner lenfositik infiltrasyonun bilateral kulak memesi yerleşiminin nadir görülmesi nedeniyle olguyu sunmayı uygun bulduk.
