Follicular Mycosis Fungoides, a Distinct Disease Entity With or Without Associated Follicular Mucinosis

Abstract

Follicular MF shows distinctive clinicopathologic features, is more refractory to treatment, and has a worse prognosis than the classic type of MF; it should be considered a distinct type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Based on these results and those of other studies, we suggest the term follicular MF for cases with or without associated follicular mucinosis.
