Overview

If left untreated, cutaneous T cell lymphoma may progress to develop cutaneous patches, plaque, and tumors. Depending on the extent of the lymphoma at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary.

Natural History

  • The symptoms of mycosis fungoides usually develop in the first nonspecific, indolent inflammatory such as : topic dermatitis, nonspecific chronic dermatitis, or parapsoriasis ( large-plaque parapsoriasis).[1]
  • The majory of patients have early stage (77.9% : IA stage IA 38.8%, stage IB 39.1% ), patietns with satge IIB diagnosed in 5.5% and stage III observed in 6.6%.[1]
  • The majority of patients of mycosis fungoides are not diagnosed and end stage not be observed.[1]
  • Mycosis fungoides in early stage characterized with nonspecific dermatitis or consists patches observed on the lower trunk and buttocks.[1]
  • Mycosis fungoides is initially an indolent lymphoma that may later develop peripheral lymphadenopathy and can finally progress to widespread visceral involvement.[2]
  • Cutaneous T cell lymphoma is usually initially seen by dermatologists with patients presenting with skin lesions such as erythematous patches or plaque.
  • Patients often have a history of several years of eczematous or dermatitic skin lesions before the diagnosis is finally established.
  • The skin lesions then progress from the patch stage to the plaque stage to cutaneous tumors.

Complications

  • Common complications of Cutaneous T cell lymphoma include:
    • Mycosis Fungoides increased risk of secondary malignancies such as primary malignancy, especially Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic leukemia, and lung cancer.[3]
    • [Complication 2]
    • [Complication 3]

Prognosis

  • Cutaneous T cell lymphoma is usually a slow-growing (indolent) lymphoma.[4]
  • The prognosis for people with cutaneous T cell lymphoma is based on the extent of disease and how the person responds to treatment.
  • Although more advanced stages of cutaneous T cell lymphoma may not be cured, the lymphoma can still be controlled with treatment.

Favorable prognosis

Unfavorable prognosis


Staging

  • The staging of cutaneous T cell lymphoma is based on skin and lymph node involvement.[4]
  • Staging for cutaneous T cell lymphoma(Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sezary syndrome have same critera for staging) is provided in the following table:[5][6]
Staging for mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome
Skin (T)
T1 Limited patches, papules, and/or plaques covering <10% of the skin surface. May further stratify into T1a (patch only) versus T1b (plaque patch)
T2 Patches, papules, or plaques covering 10% of the skin surface. May further stratify into T2a (patch only) versus T2b (plaque patch).
T3 One or more tumours (1-cm diameter)
T4 Confluence of erythema covering 80% body surface area
Node (N)
N0 No clinically abnormal peripheral lymph nodes; biopsy not required
N1 Clinically abnormal lymph nodes; histopathology Dutch grade 1 or NCI LN0-2
N1a Clone negative
N1b Clone posetive
N2 Clinically abnormal peripheral lymph nodes; histopathology Dutch grade 2 or NCI LN3
N2a Clone negatove
N2b Clone posetive
N3 Clinically abnormal peripheral lymph nodes; histopathology Dutch grades 3e4 or NCI LN4; clone positive or negative
NX Clinically abnormal peripheral lymph nodes; no histologic confirmation
Visceral (M)
M0 No visceral organ involvement
M1 Visceral involvement (must have pathology confirmation and organ involved should be specified)
Blood (B)
B0 0 Absence of significant blood involvement: 5% of peripheral blood lymphocytes are atypical (Sezary) cells B0a Clone negative B0b Clone positive
B1 Low blood tumour burden: >5% of peripheral blood lymphocytes are atypical (Sezary) cells but does not meet the criteria of B2 B1a Clone negative B1b Clone positive
B2 High blood tumour burden: 1000/mL Sezary cells with positive clone

The staging of Sezary syndrome is based on the clinical stages:[5][7]

clinical stages
Stage T N M B DDS
IA 1 0 0 0/1 98
IB 2 0 0 0/1 89
IIA 1.2 1.2 0 0/1 89
IIB 3 0-2 0 0/1 56
IIIA 4 0-2 0 0 54
IIIB 4 0-2 0 1 48
IVA1 1-4 0-2 0 2 41
IVA2 1-4 3 0 0-2 23
IVB 1-4 0-3 1 0-2 18
  • [5-year disease free survival (DSS)]
  • Cancer has spread to other organs in the body, including the blood and bone marrow
  • Lymph nodes may be enlarged and may contain cancer
