The theme of this symposium will address the challenges in the diagnosis of cutaneous reactions and benign proliferations that mimic lymphomas, carcinomas, melanomas and sarcomas. This topic was chosen because of the many challenges that these benign lesions present in the daily sign out of cases. The objective o the program is to present an array of these pseudomalignancies, and to delineate criteria for their correct diagnosis. The participants will learn the morphologic features and the use of immunohistochemistry and molecular diagnostic techniques to help differentiate these benign mimickers from their malignant counterparts.
