CD4/CD8 double-negative mycosis fungoides: a review
View through CrossRef
Mycosis Fungoides (MF) stands as the predominant form of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). It manifests a diverse array of clinical, histological, and immunophenotypic variations, each bearing distinct prognostic implications. The typical immunophenotypic profile of mycosis fungoides involves CD3+/CD4+/CD45RO+ memory T cells. Notably, the CD4-/CD8- double-negative variant of MF is a rare occurrence, observed in approximately 12% of early-stage cases and more prevalent in tumor-stage instances, often correlated with atypical clinical presentations. Despite its rarity, scant information is available about double-negative Mycosis Fungoides, with only a limited number of cases documented in the existing literature. This review aims to provide enhanced clarity, comprehension, and a detailed exploration of the spectrum encompassing double-negative mycosis fungoides.
