A Case of Mycosis Fungoides / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

We present a case of mycosis fungoides of an 52-year-old woman who showed multiple pruritic erythematous papules, plaques with ulcers on the trunk, extremities and face. Her skin biopsy specimens were studied irnmunohistochemically with, monoclonal antibodies against T cells(80%, Leu-4, OKT11), T-cell subsets (60% Leu-3a, OKT4a, 40% OKT8) and Langerhans cell(OKT6). We think that this case should be considered in the differential diagnosis of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The proliferating cells were negative for anti-Tac.
