Mycosis fungoides and its variants are a distinct entity with a variable, but well-characterized clinical course. We report on a 51-year-old patient with tumor-stage mycosis fungoides who developed several unusual features such as extensive necrosis of lymphoma lesions, granulomatous reaction, and
We report a 51-year-old woman with cutaneous involvement by extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (TCL) of the colon that microscopically mimicked mycosis fungoides (MF). She had a history of fever of unknown origin for 2 months and then developed multiple erythematous papules on her trunk and extremities.
BACKGROUND
Patients with mycosis fungoides (MF) experience frequent disease recurrences following total skin electron irradiation (TSEI) and may benefit from adjuvant therapy.
OBJECTIVE
To review the McGill experience with adjuvant alpha-interferon (IFN) in the treatment of MF.
METHODS
From 1990 to
An 86-year-old woman had a subjective history of pruritus and intermittent fever. The clinical diagnosis of mycosis fungoides was confirmed by cutaneous and lymph node biopsies. Immunohistochemical, cytofluorographic, and ultrastructural analysis was performed. According to immunohistochemical
We report a case of a 69-year-old gentleman who presented with a 3-month history of unexplained fevers and malaise who developed generalized pruritus, alopecia and an ichthyosiform erythematous eruption on his forearms, legs, chest and back. Skin histology, immunophenotyping and molecular features
A 14-year-old Caucasian boy presented with a 4-month history of a slightly pruritic eruption that began on the hips and later extended to the trunk and upper and lower limbs. The patient did not present fever, weight loss, or asthenia. Physical examination revealed multiple, red, desquamative, oval
Erythroderma refers to a spectrum of skin diseases resulting in diffuse erythema and scaling encompassing ≥ 90% of the body surface area. The differential diagnosis ranges from primary dermatologic diseases such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis to potentially deadly causes such as staphylococcal
We describe a 68-year-old man with plaque stage mycosis fungoides (MF) for 8 years. He developed tumorous lesions of granulomatous MF (GrMF) and generalized granuloma annulare (GA) after a previously indolent clinical course. Since then, the clinical course was aggressive with involvement of the
This article describes an eleven year old mare with apathy, fever, enlarged mandibular lymph nodes, skin lesions on the upper lip and edematous, grey-red mucous membranes in the nose, mouth and vulva. Histopathology revealed infiltrates with atypical lymphocytes forming Pautrier's microabscesses.
BACKGROUND
Mycosis fungoides can mimic pigmented purpuric dermatitis. We report such a case which progressed to peripheral T-cell lymphoma; progression was revealed by reactive hemophagocytic syndrome (RHS).
METHODS
A 65-year old male patient was hospitalized for a pigmented and purpuric eruption.
14 patients suffering from early stage mycosis fungoides were treated with interferon alpha 2-a and PUVA/1 patient in stage I a, 3 patients in stage I b, 4 patients in stage II a and 6 patients in stage II b/during 3-21 months time course. Interferon alpha 2-a was administered 3 times a week, in
Up to the present no other therapeutic means besides local X-ray or beta-ray irradiation and anticancer drugs for the treatment of patients with mycosis fungoides, especially when the condition has progressed to secondary involvement of the lymph nodes, has been found. A recent clinical trial of
A 69-year-old Japanese man developed pruritus 3 years after beginning hemodialysis. Although eczema was not apparent at first, erythematous patches and plaques developed gradually on the affected skin. Secondary hyperparathyroidism was considered to be a main cause of this patient's pruritus, but
BACKGROUND
DAB389IL-2 is a novel fusion toxin that retargets the cytotoxic A-chain of diphtheria toxin to interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor-expressing tumors.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this phase I trial was to study the toxicity, maximum tolerated dose, and clinical efficacy of DAB389IL-2 in IL-2
The purpose of this study was to investigate the biologic activity of DAB486IL-2 when administered three times daily, in terms of toxicity, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor effects in patients with IL-2R expressing hematologic malignancies, especially mycosis fungoides. 20 patients were enrolled in
