Abstract

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoid neoplasms in childhood are exceedingly rare, presenting with a wide spectrum of clinical presentation and outcomes. Due to numerous clinical and pathological mimics, an integrated evaluation of clinical, histopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular findings is critical for a diagnosis. Here, we review the clinical and pathological features, updated classifications, and critical differential diagnoses of cutaneous T-cell lymphoid neoplasms in children.
