Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a chronic recurrent self-healing condition, with histological features suggestive of a malignant lymphoma. Only a few cases have been described in children. We report 10 children with this skin disease and compare them with the adult type of LyP and childhood cases described in the literature. Although LyP has the same clinical picture and histology in both age groups, in contrast with the adult type no transformation into malignancy has been described in childhood.

Article Synopsis
- Primitive cutaneous T-cell lymphomas are skin-specific lymphomas, distinct from systemic lymphomas affecting the skin.
- The most common types include mycosis fungoides, CD30+ lymphoproliferations, and erythrodermic T-cell lymphomas, with several rarer forms also identified.
- Diagnosis relies on clinical skin exams and biopsies, enhanced by molecular genetics, while treatments are categorized into five main types, including skin therapies and immunotherapies.

- The researchers reviewed patient records from a dermatology center, finding 12 cases diagnosed between 2010 and 2020, mostly affecting older adults.
- They discovered that T-cell lymphomas were more common than B-cell lymphomas, and sadly, three patients died during the study period.
