Mycosis fungoides is a malignant T-cell lymphoproliferative disease with a predilection for cutaneous involvement. Extracutaneous disease is uncommon and oral mucosal involvement is rare. We describe a case of mycosis fungoides involving the hard palate treated with radiotherapy. The relevant literature on this topic is reviewed.
