Abstract

Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is defined as a chronic, recurrent, self-healing papulonecrotic or papulonodular skin disease with histologic features suggestive of a (CD30-positive) malignant lymphoma. In up to 20% of patients, LyP are preceded by, associated with, or followed by another type of cutaneous or systemic lymphoma, generally mycosis fungoides (MF), primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (C-ALCL). In this case, we describe a case of MF that preceded and continued to coexist with LyP type C.
