Immuno Pathogenesis of Pregnancy induced Lymphomatoid Papulosis

چکیده

We present the immuno pathogenesis of Lymphomatoid Papulosis associated with mild immuno suppression. The foundation of our observation was based on case reports discussing the development of LyP while concurrently using immune modulators. The medically altered immune state is mirrored by the hormone-induced changes of pregnancy. Furthermore, we explain how the natural progression of pregnancy facilitates a pathologic transformation of LyP in rare individuals. This is only the second reported case of pregnancy induced LyP. To clarify the findings, we include a basic review of Lymphomatoid Papulosis with key points of immunology related to both pathology and pregnancy.

Polymorphism of the CD30 promoter microsatellite repressive element is associated with development of primary cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders.

Lymphomatoid papulosis is a preneoplastic cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by overexpression of CD30, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. CD30 signaling is known to have an effect on the growth and survival of lymphoid cells. Therefore, we hypothesized that the development of lymphomatoid papulosis and progression to an associated neoplasm such as cut...

Immunopathogenesis of pregnancy induced lymphomatoid papulosis

A 35-year-old Caucasian female G4P4 at week one post partum with no significant past medical history was referred to our clinic for evaluation and treatment of right thigh dermatitis. Reported history suggested a recurrent dermatitis in the same location of which she believed the papules had been larger during the previous flare. Physical exam confirmed the lesions were localized to the distal ...

[Oral involvement in lymphomatoid papulosis].

Lymphomatoid papulosis is a cutaneous lymphoma with an indolent clinical behaviour characterized by chronic development of recurrent, self-limited lesions appearing as necrotic papules and with a pathology compatible with T cell lymphoma. Mucosal involvement by lymphomatoid papulosis is very rare but has been reported in the literature. It usually appears as ulcers in patients previously diagno...

Lymphomatoid papulosis associated with recurrent cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

INTRODUCTION Lymphomatoid papulosis is a chronic benign disease which may be associated with malignant lymphomas. This case illustrates the relapsing and remitting nature of both lymphomatoid papulosis and its potential of developing cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy as a new modality of treatment of early-stage mycosis fungoides in these patients. ...
