cutaneous lymphoma
Another question from my set of documents on cutaneous lymphoma, this time regarding B-cell lymphomas. My query is regarding the term ‘en casque’ here – does it refer to the distribution of the lymphoma (helmet-like?)
Sur le cuir chevelu, ce lymphome peut réaliser une infiltration assez diffuse « en casque » avec parfois (Figures 1 et 2) un aspect télangiectasique.

‐ Strongly expressed in normal germinal center B‐cells.
‐ Also expressed in some lymphomas
‐ Burkitt lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, nodular lymphocyte predominance Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL),
and a subset of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Schistocytes Fragmented red blood cells, taking shapes such as helmet-shaped
cells, due to mechanical red cell fragmentation.

Poikilocytosis:
Marked abnormalities in the shape of red cells also occur in megaloblastic anemias. It has been suggested that these abnormalities result from fragmentation of the abnormal large red cells as they pass through small arterioles. As the megaloblastic anemia becomes more sever, bizarre shapes such as triangles and helmets increases proportionately.
Helmet cell
Abnormally shaped erythrocyte with one or several notches and projections on either end
that look like horns. Also called keratocyte and horn-shaped cells. The shape is caused by trauma to the erythrocyte
Schistocyte
Fragment of an erythrocyte; a schistocyte may have a variety of shapes including triangle, helmet, and comma

On the scalp, this type of lymphoma may present a fairly scattered, "helmet-like" infiltrating pattern...
Here is an article about a B-cell lymphoma with an unusual infiltrating pattern:
