CONT

Mycosis fungoides-type cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (MF-CTCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by the initial localization of malignant T cells in the skin.

CONT

MF-CTCL is a disease of slow progression that is difficult to classify and often, in its early stages, presents a diagnostic challenge, as many of the signs and symptoms are non-specific or easy to confuse with other conditions. Consequently, many patients are misdiagnosed with other dermatological conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
