Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas: mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) accounts for two thirds of all cases of primary cutaneous lymphoma. The most common CTCL is

mycosis fungoides typically running an indolent course, on the other side, the rare Sézary syndrome has an aggressive clinical course.

Making accurate diagnosis and staging according to the new WHO-EORTC classification and TNMB system is essential to determine

the prognosis and management. In early-stage disease patients should be treated with skin-directed treatment, in more advanced or

aggressive course systemic treatment should be recommended by an interdisciplinary team.

Keywords: primary cutaneous T lymphoma, mycosis fungoides, Sézary syndrome
