Primary cutaneous CD301 lymphoproliferative disorders (CD30 1 LPDs) are a disease spectrum including primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (C-ALCL) and lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP).1 C-ALCL presents as solitary, grouped, or, rarely, multifocal nodules and tumors that often ulcerate. Cutaneous relapses are common, but extracutaneous dissemination occurs in only 10% to 15% of patients and mainly involves regional lymph nodes. [2][3][4] LyP is characterized by a chronic course of recurrent, self-healing papulonecrotic or nodular skin lesions. Extracutaneous disease rarely develops.3 The prognosis of both conditions is usually excellent with a 5-year disease-specific survival of approximately 90% for C-ALCL and almost 100% for LyP. or TP63 rearrangement with 5-year survival rates of 17% and 42%, respectively.8-10
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
