Mycosis fungoides History Skin Lymphoma Alibert-Bazin disease Patch Plaque Tumor
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a mature non-Hodgkin lymphoma of T cell origin, and a type of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL). MF was first recognized in 1806 by a French dermatologist, Jean-Louis-Marc Alibert at the Lhpital St. Louis in France [].
In 1876, MF became known as Alibert-Bazin disease , named after Alibert and Pierre-Antoine-Ernest Bazin who contributed toward an early comprehensive characterization of the disease []. Taken together, these descriptions formed the early characterizations of MF, which were later followed by descriptions of Szarys syndrome (SS), the leukemic variant of CTCL.
Today we know that CTCL comprise a diverse group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) caused by malignant skin-trafficking T cells. MF is the most common type of CTCL. Primary cutaneous lymphomas are classified by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) (Table ).

MF is a mature T cell NHL that primarily develops in the skin, but can also involve lymph nodes, blood, and other organs. Clinically, MF typically begins as variably sized, pruritic, erythematous patches with a fine scale []. Patients with MF typically have a prolonged clinical course.
Early lesions of MF may show variable degrees of epidermal atrophy, telangiectasia, and/or mottled hyper- or hypopigmentation. The term poikoderma refers to a combination of these features, the presence of which is highly suggestive of MF. These initial skin lesions have a tendency to asymmetrically affect the buttocks, trunks, and limbs. Patients often have nonspecific dermatitis and/or psoriasiform skin lesions for many years that are frequently misdiagnosed as atopic, contact, nummular, or photo-induced dermatitis (see Chap. Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis section). For these reasons and more, diagnosing early MF proves to be challenging.
