Summary : We describe a 12-year-old boy with lymphomatoid papulosis type A, who was 2 years-old at the onset of the disease. Immunohistochemically, large atypical cells were positive for CD3, CD4, CD7, CD25, CD30, CD71, and HLA-DR. A review of the literature concerning 44 patients with the disease, younger than 20 years-old, revealed that the age of onset was between 0 to 5 years in 42.9% of the patients and that 2 cases developed malignant lymphoma in their fifties. |
Keywords : CD30, cutaneous lymphoma. |
