    Author: Shistik G, Scalf LA, Fenske N, Glass LF.
    Journal: J Drugs Dermatol; 2004; 3(3):301-4. PubMed ID: 15176165.
    Abstract:
    Follicular mycosis fungoides, a subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, is often difficult to treat. We present a case of a female with follicular mycosis fungoides who showed an excellent response to low-dose (150 mg/m2) oral bexarotene (Targretin). To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of follicular mycosis fungoides demonstrating a response to bexarotene.
