Mycosis fungoides is a rare form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The disease is progressive and chronic. In individuals with mycosis fungoides, the skin becomes infiltrated with plaques and nodules that are composed of lymphocytes. In advanced cases, ulcerated tumors and infiltration of lymph nodes by diseased cells may occur. The disorder may spread to other parts of the body, including the gastrointestinal system, liver, spleen, or brain.
