  • Title: Waxy papules, infiltrated alopecic plaques, and shin ichthyosis.
    Author: Bhat K, Madhudiya R, Elhence PA, Singh S.
    Journal: Int J Dermatol; 2024 Aug; 63(8):1036-1038. PubMed ID: 38501702.
    Abstract:
    A 38-year-old male presented with waxy papules, plaques over the neck and extremities, and ichthyotic scales over the lower limbs. Skin biopsy revealed a dense medium-sized lymphocytic infiltrate in the dermis, with perifollicular accentuation and focal exocytosis into the follicular epithelium with strong positivity for CD 3, 4, and 5. Considering the clinicopathological correlation, a diagnosis of follicular mycosis fungoides (FMF) was made. It is a variant of classic mycosis fungoides (MF) where atypical cells invade the follicular epithelium.
