Ichthyosiform mycosis fungoides.
Malignancy-associated acquired ichthyosis is well known, but the ichthyosiform subset of mycosis fungoides (MF) is rarely reported. We report on two patients with a clinical presentation for whom diagnosis of mycosis fungoides was established on histological grounds. In both cases, long term remission was obtained with non aggressive therapies. This rare condition must be added to newly described forms of MF with epidermal hyperplasia such as keratosis lichenoides chronica like MF and pilotropic MF.
