Lymphomatoid papulosis: a low-grade T-cell lymphoma?
Lymphomatoid papulosis is a chronic cutaneous lymphoid disease characterised clinically by the presence of recurrent papulonodular or plaque like lesions, which appear benign. Paradoxically, histological and cytopathological features demonstrate features of malignancy. This annotation highlight the current theories and technical advances into the assessment of this condition, with emphasis on possible pathogenic disease mechanisms.
