Acitretin Combined with NB‐UVB in the Treatment of Cutaneous CD30‐positive Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma

Abstract

Cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders represent a spectrum of skin lymphatic reticular proliferative diseases, including lymphomatoid papulosis (LYP), primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PC‐ALCL), and borderline lesions between them. Although they all express CD30 as a phenotypic marker and share overlapping immunophenotypic features, they differ in clinical manifestations, pathological features, treatment, and prognosis. LYP is a kind of benign disease characterized by recurrent papules and nodules and may spontaneously regress. PC‐ALCL presents with solitary tumor or local grouped nodules characterized by large T‐cells and may completely or partially resolve in fewer than half of cases. We reported a case of patient with clinical manifestation and pathologic features consistent with LYP in its early stages, which later turned into PC‐ALCL. This patient was treated with acitretin combined with NB‐UVB and had an obvious response.
