Woringer-Kolopp disease is a localized epidermotropic T cell lymphoma with good prognosis. We describe a 79-year-old man with an erythematous scaly plaque of the foot. Clinical diagnosis of psoriasis, parapsoriasis and fungal infection were proposed. Histopathological and immunohistochemical findings were characteristic of Woringer-Kolopp disease. We observed an immunohistochemical positivity of tumour cells for the anti-CD103 antibody (alphaEB7 integrin) according to the epidermotropism of this localized cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

Restricted pagetoid reticulosis, also known as Woringer-Kolopp disease, represents a rare cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorder categorized as an isolated variant of mycosis fungoides. This report presents a case involving limited pagetoid reticulosis affecting the right upper extremity in a 25-year-old female. The patient had been experiencing plaques on the right upper extremity for a decade.

DUSP22-rearranged primary cutaneous anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (pcALCL) has a biphasic histological pattern defined by large dermal atypical lymphocytes and epidermotropic small lymphocytes resembling pagetoid reticulosis, but the positivity rate of the biphasic pattern in DUSP22-rearranged pcALCL is unknown. Immunohistochemically, LEF1 expression in >75% of tumor cells is associated with DUSP22-rearrangement (DUSP22-R) in systemic ALCL. However, whether this association applies to pcALCL remains unclear.

Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. MF is the most common cutaneous lymphoma, and it is classified into classic Alibert-Bazin MF, folliculotropic MF, pagetoid reticulosis, and granulomatous slack skin, each with characteristic clinical presentation, histopathological findings, and distinct clinical behaviors. SS is an aggressive leukemic variant of cutaneous lymphoma, and it is characterized by erythroderma, lymphadenopathy, and peripheral blood involvement by malignant cells.

Mycosis fungoides is the most common primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, characterized by skin-homing CD4+ T cells derivation, indolent course, and low-grade of malignancy. Mycosis fungoides's classic type typically onsets with cutaneous erythematous patches, plaque, and tumor. In WHO-EORTC classification, folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, pagetoid reticulosis, and granulomatous slack skin are recognized as distinct variants of mycosis fungoides, because of their clinical and histological features, behavior, and /or prognosis.
