Background: Erythroderma is an inflammatory disorder. It has various differential diagnoses, among which one of the most important is mycosis fungoides. Erythroderma itself can be a challenging disorder. Diagnosis of a mycosis fungoides patient presenting with erythroderma specially requires a careful assessment of the peripheral blood. Studies such as CD markers can lead to a more accura...

We present a 32-year-old white patient with congenital reticular ichthyosiform erythroderma, also known as ichthyosis variegata. The patient had typical clinical features with areas of normal appearing skin surrounded by erythematous hyperkeratotic patches. The smaller ‘‘confetti-like’’ patches were mostly present on the trunk, while the larger areas forming a reticular pattern predominated on ...

Sézary Syndrome (SS) and erythrodermic mycosis fungoides (MF) are advanced-stage disease variants of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL). Erythroderma clonal blood involvement established markers an unfavorable outcome in CTCL, but these can also appear benign chronic inflammatory dermatoses. Of note, mechanisms guiding CTCL pathogenesis still only insufficiently understood, the different...

Bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma (BIE) is a rare disorder of keratinization (mutations in either keratin 1 or 10). It typically presents with fragile skin, which gives way to gradual evolutionof hyperkeratosis. Flaccid blisters, peeling, and superficial erosions at sites of minor trauma or friction are apparent within the first few hours of life. Yellow-brown, waxy, ridged or corrugated...
