Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). It is an indolent (slow growing) non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that develops over many years or even decades. It accounts for around half of all skin lymphomas. Mycosis fungoides (MF) starts in the skin and tends to remain only in the skin. MF can appear as patches, plaques or tumours. MF often occurs in areas of the skin that are protected from the sun by clothing. 3, record 1, English, - mycosis%20fungoides
