Report of a rare case of bullous mycosis fungoides

Mycosis fungicides (MF), on extremely rare occasions, can be associated with vesiculobullous eruptions. We describe a 74-year-old man with previous documented histopathologic diagnosis of poikilodermic type of MF who recently developed some flaccid acral bullae on erythemoatous MF plaque and normal skin. Histopathology and direct immunoflourscence studies revealed extensive lichenoid chan...

It is characterized by the expansion of CD4+ and CDw29+ immunophenotype T-cell clones lacking normal antigens. These altered T-lymphocytes are predominantly located in the skin, but some of them retain their ability to migrate and exit the skin through t...
