Abstract
Angiocentrism is an uncommon finding in a cutaneous lymphoid infiltrate and would raise the possibility of several disorders, many of which are associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Angioinvasion may be a feature of aggressive lymphomas, such as extranodal NK-/T-cell lymphoma nasal type, lymphomatoid granulomatosis, and gamma-delta T-cell lymphoma. However, some cases of lymphomatoid papulosis show angioinvasion (LyP type E).
