ABSTRACT
Sezary syndrome is a variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) featuring erythroderma, pruritus, adenopathy and circulating atypical T-lymphocytes. Recent studies suggest that patients with prolonged idiopathic erythroderma, possibility of Sezary syndrome should be considered because in a certain proportion of these patients, they may develop CTCL. We report a case of a 35-year-old man with a prolonged erythroderma for three years. On physical examination, multiple swellings of lymph nodes were noted. Presence of Sezary cells in the peripheral blood, skin and lymph nodes supported the diagnosis of Sezary syndrome.
