Primary cutaneous CD4 + small/medium T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in children: A case report and review of the literature.

Primary cutaneous CD4 + small/medium T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder (PCSM-TCLPD) is a rare benign lymphoproliferative disorder, recently redefined by the 2016 World Health Organization classification of lymphoid neoplasms. In adults, PCSM-TCLPD responds well to monotherapy with surgical excision or local radiation, with or without topical/injected corticosteroids; in contrast, PCSM-TCLPD has only rarely been reported in children, in whom treatments favored in adults may be non-optimal. We present a 14-year-old male with PCSM-TCLPD on the forehead, who achieved complete remission following biopsy, topical corticosteroids, and surgical excision. We also review all literature-reported cases of pediatric PCSM-TCLPD, emphasizing the disorder's benign nature and treatment responsiveness in children.
