Extract

Numerous histologic mimickers of mycosis fungoides (MF) have been reported in the literature. Lymphomatoid contact dermatitis (LCD), which presents as treatment-responsive allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) that histologically resembles MF, is another entity appropriately placed in this category. Numerous allergens have been implicated in this rare variant of ACD, but to our knowledge, there have been no reported cases of LCD in reaction to preservatives found in baby wipes.
