Abstract:
Initially contemplated as a provisional subtype of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), primary cutaneous CD4+ small / medium T cell lymphoproliferative disorder manifests as an indolent, solitary cutaneous lesion in the absence of accompanying cutaneous lymphoma as mycosis fungoides. Preponderantly, infiltration of upper dermis with miniature to intermediate, pleomorphic CD4+ T cells in the absence of preceding or concurrent patches and plaques with focal epidermotropism is encountered. Primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T cell lymphoproliferative disorder commonly appears in adults as a solitary plaque, tumour or nodule situated upon face, neck, upper trunk or thoracic region. Upon cytology, pleomorphic, miniature, intermediate or occasionally enlarged T lymphoid cells with irregular nuclear contours are variably intermixed with miniature, reactive CD8+ T cells, B cells, plasma cells, histiocytes and monotypic plasma cells. Morphologically, an intense dermal infiltrate of atypical lymphoid cells or small / medium pleomorphic CD4+ T cells extending into subcutaneous tissue appears to configure a diffuse or nodular configuration wherein the enlarged, pleomorphic cells articulate
