In this review, we discuss the clinical and histologic features of lymphomatoid papulosis, a cutaneous disorder characterized by recurrent eruptions of self-healing papules and small nodules with histologic findings suggestive of malignant lymphoma. Possible causes of this peculiar disease are discussed in the light of recent investigation. Recognition is important to avoid misdiagnosis and overly aggressive therapy, but it should be remembered that a small number of cases have been reported to progress to malignant lymphoma.
