  • Title: Sea-blue histiocytes in mycosis fungoides.
    Author: Robinowitz B, Roenigk HH, Smith MM.
    Journal: Arch Dermatol; 1975 Sep; 111(9):1165-7. PubMed ID: 1167049.
    Abstract:
    A patient with tumor-stage mycosis fungoides and lymph node involvement had sea-blue (ceroid-containing) histiocytes in her bone marrow. Leukopenia, eosinophilia, and a mild type II beta-hyperlipoproteinemia were also features. Sea-blue histiocytes were demonstrated in the skin after the mycosis fungoides infiltrate had cleared with treatment. There is a possible interrelationship between the sea-blue histiocytes, the abnormal mycosis cells in the skin, and lipid metabolism.
