Hydroa vacciniforme-like lymphomatoid papulosis in a Japanese child: A new subset

Pathogenic Link Between Hydroa Vacciniforme and Epstein-Barr Virus–Associated Hematologic Disorders

“…Seven of 11 patients in the severe HV group have been described in case reports elsewhere, 13,[19][20][21][22][23][24] with differential diagnoses of pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta, lymphomatoid papulosis, and angiocentric lymphoma.…”

Hydroa vacciniforme-like lymphoma: a chronic EBV+ lymphoproliferative disorder with risk to develop a systemic lymphoma

“…1 In past years a peculiar group of vesicopapular eruptions that mimic HV was recognized in children mainly from Mexico, 2,3 Peru, 4 and Asia. [5][6][7][8] These lesions present with marked facial edema, vesicles, crusts, and large ulcers, with severe scarring and disfigurement in sun-exposed and nonexposed skin areas. The patients usually have systemic symptoms including fever, weight loss, and asthenia.…”

Type D Lymphomatoid Papulosis: An uncommon Variant. A case report and review of the literature

“…Unless accompanied by systemic lymphoma, most patients have no constitutional symptoms. Unusual presentations described include localized forms being more frequently seen in children and young adults, pustulous variants, LyP variants affecting the mucosal membranes and hidroa-vacciniforme-like variants [9,11,14,16,[17][18][19][20]. Lesions heals spontaneously within 2-8 weeks, leaving a hypopigmented or hyperpigmented, depressed, oval, and varioliform scar, especially if the previous lesion was an ulcero-necrotic nodule [9,11,14,21].…”
