  • Title: Clinical case of the month. A young man with a persistent skin eruption. Mycosis fungoides.
    Author: Kendrick CG, Gerdes MS, Lopez FA, McBurney EI.
    Journal: J La State Med Soc; 2004; 156(2):73-7. PubMed ID: 15106864.
    Abstract:
    There are many types of skin disease that fit into the classification of cutaneous lymphoma, but mycosis fungoides is by far the most common of this group. It is a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of T-cell origin that presents in the skin. Mycosis fungoides often evolves for years without a specific diagnosis because it can present as an eczematous or psoriasiform eruption. Patients identified in the early stages and treated appropriately have a normal life expectancy.
