Not Just Mycosis Fungoides: A Case Series of Concurrent Fungal Infections in Patients With Cutaneous T‐Cell Lymphoma
ABSTRACT Mycosis fungoides is a misnomer that means ‘mushroom‐like fungal disease’, but it is, in fact, the most common form of cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma. The diagnosis of mycosis fungoides is often delayed due to non‐specific symptoms and cutaneous signs that mimic other common benign inflammatory dermatoses. We report a case series to emphasize the importance of considering fungal skin infections in patients with mycosis fungoides, especially when the rash is atypical.
