Clinical Case #3: Relapsing erythrodermic Mycosis Fungoides, possible Sézary Syndrome

Joan Guitart, MD, Professor of Dermatology and Pathology at Northwestern University, explores the hypothetical patient case of a 60-year-old man, initially diagnosed 4 years ago with stage 3B Mycosis Fungoides that included erythroderma and B1 blood involvement. With treatment, partial response was maintained for 12 months, but the efficacy is waning. See what Dr. Guitart’s next steps would be for this patient-and why they include flow cytometry to assess for blood involvement.
