Aim: A case of primary cutaneous post liver transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) mimicking squamous cell carcinoma-in-situ is presented.

Methods: Lesions mimicking SCC-in-situ were confirmed to be PTLD on histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Immunosuppression was gradually reduced and the lesions were successfully treated with 50 gray (Gy) in 25 fractions of radiotherapy.

Results: There was no recurrence of lesions at 3 months follow-up.

Conclusion: Radiotherapy is an effective form of cutaneous directed treatment for localized PTLD.
