Abstract
Lymphomatoid papulosis is a chronic disease of cutaneous lymphoid infi ltration characterized clinically by involuting and recurring papules, plaques, and nodules. The intriguing combination of a usually benign clinical course, a cytologically malignant lymphoid infiltrate on hist ologic examination, and a clear, but sporadic association with extracu taneous lymphomas has stimulated significant investigation. Applicatio n of recent technical advances to re search in lymphomatoid papulosis prompts this review.
