Abstract
Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) Type E is a recently introduced subtype of LyP presenting with escar-like lesions and characterized with angiocentric invasion of dermal blood vessels by CD30 positive atypical lymphocytes resulting necrosis of their walls. Owing to its considerable histologic characteristics such as dense dermal infiltration of CD30 positive large atypical lymphocytes showing high mitotic activity, and angiodestructive invasion, it is challengible to discriminate LyP Type E to aggressive cutanoues lymphomas.
Highlights
Definition and Etiology Peptic ulcer (PU) can be defined as the presence of a profound loss of substance affecting the mucosa of the stomach and/or duodenum, reaching beyond the muscularis mucosa, generally to the muscle layer due to the environmental gastric acid secretion
The two most common etiological causes are the chronic infection with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and the use of non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including the acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)
For patients who must continue with their NSAIDs, pump inhibitors (PPIs) maintenance is recommended to prevent recurrences even after eradication of H pylori
