  • Title: Pediatric primary follicular mucinosis: further evidence of its relationship with mycosis fungoides.
    Author: Santos-Briz A, Cañueto J, García-Dorado J, Alonso MT, Balanzategui A, González-Díaz M.
    Journal: Pediatr Dermatol; 2013; 30(6):e218-20. PubMed ID: 23489440.
    Abstract:
    Follicular mucinosis (FM) is an uncommon reaction pattern in which the accumulation of mucin in the follicular epithelium is the main pathologic finding. FM may be idiopathic (primary follicular mucinosis [PFM]), in association with mycosis fungoides or cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, or in association with other neoplastic and inflammatory conditions. Herein we report a case of PFM with identical T-cell clone rearrangement at anatomically distinct sites, supporting the idea that some authors have proposed, that FM may represent a low-grade lymphoproliferative disease related to mycoses fungoides with favorable prognosis.
