Abstract
Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a rare skin disease which is characterised by chronic, recurrent self-healing papulo-nodular skin lesions. It is classified under the group of primary cutaneousCD30+ve lymphoproliferative disorders. It is important to diagnose LyP as it is usually associated with other malignant lymhoproliferative disorders like mycosis fungoides, cutaneous or systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma. LyP associated malignancies may occur before, concurrent with or after the onset of LyP. In most of the cases previously described, Hodgkin's disease has developed after, or concurrently with, the onset of LyP. Here we report a case of LyP that developed 5 years after the onset and therapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma.
