Primary cutaneous Hodgkin-like polymorphic post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder.
Journal of Cutaneous Pathology 2019 May
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is an uncommon complication after solid-organ transplants and hematopoietic stem cell transplants. Isolated involvement of the skin without systemic involvement in PTLD is extremely rare. Primary cutaneous PTLD is generally categorized as either cutaneous T-cell lymphoma or cutaneous B-cell lymphoma, with variable Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) positivity. Herein, we describe an exceedingly uncommon case of a primary cutaneous Hodgkin-like polymorphic PTLD. A man in his 60s, with a history of kidney transplant, presented with a 5-week history of two indurated plaques. Clinical, histologic and immunohistochemical findings were consistent with primary cutaneous Hodgkin-like polymorphic PTLD. Reduction in immunosuppression led to resolution of his lesions. This case highlights a rare case of primary cutaneous Hodgkin-like PTLD and increases awareness of this uncommon post-transplant complication. It also underscores the importance of collaboration between dermatology, hematology, dermatopathology and hematopathology in order to diagnose challenging cases.
