ABSTRACT
We report a case of mycosis fungoides in a 37 year-old male patient who had relatively well defined, irregular, erythematous plaques covered with acales on the buttock, lower extremities, anterior chest and back. Histopathological findings showed epidermotropism and Pautrier microabscesses in the epidermis and infiltration of atypical lymphocytes in the upper dermis. Electron microscopic findings showed mycosis cells with convoluted nuclei and prominent nucleolei He had been received PUVA therapy combined with topical and systemic corticosteroid for 4 months. Skin lesions were improved markedly after treatment with total 262 joules/crn2 and then maintained with 14 joules/cm2 in every week.
