title: [Rare tumor of the cavum (mycosis fungoides)].
abstract: A case of mycosis fungoides initiating in the cavum is reported. Results of biopsy of specimens taken from this region were negative, and diagnosis was established only after the appearance of lymph node and cutaneous lesions. The etiology is discussed, particularly in relation to the possible viral nature of the acquired immunodeficiency sundromes and more especially the "gay syndrome".
