Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-002803
A group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas characterized by the proliferation of malignant T lymphocytes that primarily infiltrate the skin. These lymphomas can present with patches, plaques, or tumors and may spread to lymph nodes and internal organs in advanced stages. Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome are common forms of this disease.
