It ranges from classic and severe/systemic HV to HV-like lymphoma (HVLL). Cutaneous manifestations include vesiculopapules, bullae, ulcers, and facial swelling. HVLL usually has a long clinical course with spontaneous resolution but may progress to more severe and lifethreatening conditions. We report a rare case of HV-like LPD that evolved from classic HV to orogenital ulcerations. A 17-year-old Chinese boy presented with a 2-month history of painful orogenital swelling and ulcerative lesions without constitutional symptoms. He was diagnosed with classic HV at age 2 years, based on the typical papulovesicular eruptions on his face and photosensitivity. The symptoms spontaneously resolved 2 years before without recurrence, leaving facial varioliform scars (Fig. 1A). Physical examination revealed marked swelling on the lower lip and massive erosions with ulcerations on the scrotum (Fig. 1A, B). No lymphadenopathy was observed. A skin biopsy from the lower lip showed diffuse infiltrates of atypical lymphoid cells throughout the dermis, with remarkable epidermotropism (Fig. 2A).

Immunocompetent adults recently showed an atypical erythema multiforme (EM)-like eruption. EM is characterized by annular eruption caused by a hypersensitivity reaction from infections such as herpes simplex and mycoplasma pneumonia. Also, unusual viral pathogens Coxsackievirus A6 or A10 have been reported with HFMD, leading to more severe disease course. A 38-year-old male was presented with a pruritic, erythematous maculopapular targetoid eruption on both hands, feet, and trunk for one week (Fig. 1). Initially, he experienced malaise and mild fever before the skin eruption, which did not involve oral mucosa. Blood chemistry tests, rapid plasma reagin, human immunodeficiency virus, and hepatitis serology were normal. Histopathological examination of a macule on his left arm showed neutrophils presented with focal necrosis in upper epidermis and vacuolar alteration in the dermoepidermal junction (Fig. 2).

He presented to our hospital 4 months after the initial symptom appeared (data not shown). A biopsy of a representative lesion revealed thrombosis in the deep dermis without leukocytoclastic vasculitis (Fig. 1A). There was neither fibrinoid necrosis nor a granulomatous lesion. A diagnosis of thrombophlebitis migrans was made. The white blood cell count (9,580/μl; normal range 2,950~ 8,970/μl) was increased, with 3% abnormal lymphocytes. Southern blot analysis of peripheral blood revealed an HTLV1 provirus DNA monoclonal band. Serum levels of C-reactive protein (3.57 mg/dl; normal range <0.21 mg/dl), soluble interleukin-2 receptor (2,498 U/ml; normal range 145~519 U/ml) and immunoglobulin A (459 mg/dl; normal range 110~410 mg/dl) also were increased. Because of a history of atrial fibrillation he was taking warfarin, therefore, prothrombin time international-normalized ratio was moderately prolonged (2.13; normal range 0.9~1.1). Protein C, protein S, antithrombin III, and fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products were within normal limits under transient heparinization after interruption of warfarin.
