Heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorders occurring in the post‐transplant setting are considered together as post‐transplant lymphoproliferative disorders and can rarely present as primary cutaneous lesions. These disorders are often Epstein–Barr virus‐driven and in some cases need only be treated with reduction in immune suppressive medications. We present two cases of monomorphic post‐transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, a plasmablastic lymphoma and a diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma, and summarise common reported clinical and histopathological features.
