[Extreme soft tissue hypertrophy of both hands of "uncertain origin"].
The author reports on a 56-year old patient. At the age of 17 an asymmetric hypertrophy of the soft tissue isolated on both hands developed increasingly. Based upon differing diagnoses, corticoids and "black light - phototherapy" were attempted. In 1985 and 1986 surgery of both hands was performed. Finally in 1987, after 38 years, "Mycosis fungoides phase III" of the hands was diagnosed and adequately treated.
