Abstract
|
|
|
Woringer-Kolopp(W-K) disease is a rare, localized, histologically malignant, but clinically indolent lymphoproliferative disorder. It usually shows only a single slowly enlarging skin lesion mainly on the extremities. Some authors have regarded
W-K
disease as a variant of mycosis fungoides. However, recent studies suggest that W-K disease may represent a spectrum of T cell lymphoproliferative disoreers that may not be related to mycosis fungoides.
We report a case of Woringer-Kolopp disease in a 60-year-old male who presented with a solitary slowly growing tumor on his left palm for 3 years. Histopathologic examination showed marked acanthosis and pagetoid infiltration confined to the
epidermis.
He was treated with 4,000 red electron beam irradiation to the area with complete resolution of the lesion. Three years later, a similar lesion appeared on his left foot dorsum. He was treated as previously with a good response and there has been
no new
lesion during the last 1 year follow up period. (Kor J Dermatol 1994 ; 32(1) : 119~123).
