Sarcoidal tissue reaction in Sézary syndrome.
Sézary syndrome (SS) is an erythrodermic and leukemic variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Occasionally, the histology of CTCL exhibits evidence of a granulomatous infiltrate in the skin. A case of SS that showed epithelioid granulomas resembling sarcoidosis in the skin and lymph nodes is presented. The clinical course of this patient has been relatively indolent.
