In addition to the morphological details obtained from the imprints, a simple immunocytological study allowed us to diagnose one case of a dermopathic lymphadenopathy simulating a T cell lymphoma, following a drug-induced erythrodermia. We were able to identify the increase of CD1a+ and Prot. S100+ cells on acetone fixed imprints. The histological, immunohistological and ultrastructural investigations confirmed the value of the cytological study and that the dendritic cells were Langerhans cells (Birbeck granules+). Most of them were considered as migrating from the dermal lesions.
