CD30(+) cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorder

Definition: CD30(+) cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders (CPLDs) are a spectrum of cutaneous lymphoproliferations.

CD30+ cutaneous lymphoproliferative disorders (CLPDs) include :

- lymphomatoid papulosis
- borderline cases of CD30+ CLPDs
- primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PCALCL).

Prior studies have shown CD30+CLPDs have an excellent prognosis.
