Lymphoid hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a reactive HES, related to the presence of an abnormal circulating T cell clone. Cutaneous manifestations are frequent and sometimes inaugural, however few studies describe them specifically. ⋯ Cutaneous manifestations of lymphoid HES are variable, non-specific, and may differ according to lymphocyte phenotype. The discovery of SHE requires an extension workup and the risk of evolution towards a systemic lymphoma justifies a close surveillance. Treatment is adapted to the severity of the symptoms.
