Lymphomatoid papulosis subtype C: A case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT

Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a rare CD30+ lymphoproliferative primary skin disease with a benign clinical course and malignant histopathology. LyP is classified into seven subtypes based on histopathology subtypes A through F and LyP with 6p25.3 chromosome rearrangement. We present here, a case report of a 51-year-old man, afflicted with multiple papules and nodules on his left arm for over 3 months and diagnosed with LyP subtype C. The patient refused treatment, and his lesions faded with no visible rash on the left arm 14 months after diagnosis.
