An Aggressive Epidermotropic Type of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mycosis Fungoides (MF) is the most common type of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) and represents nearly 50% of all primary cutaneous lymphomas [1]. MF is characterized by an epidermotropic skin infiltrate of atypical CD4+ phenotype lymphocytes. In a minority of MF cases, the atypical infiltrate is CD8 positive. The later form of CTCL generally follows a rapid, aggressive clinical course [2]. Herein, we reported a case of CD4/CD8 dual-positive MF, which is rarely described in the literature.

متن کاملPrimary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8+ T-cell lymphoma.
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas most commonly have a CD4(+) memory T-cell phenotype with relatively indolent course, but may in rare cases present with a CD8(+) cytotoxic phenotype exhibiting strikingly more aggressive clinical behavior. We present two cases of the clinically aggressive subtype of primary cutaneous epidermotropic CD8(+) cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and review the current literature, cl...
