Overview

Case series reports complete remission in 60% of pediatric PMF patients treated with phototherapy, suggesting a positive prognosis.

Key Points

  • Complete remission was achieved by 60% of pediatric patients treated with phototherapy, indicating effective management of PMF.
  • The median follow-up of 19 months showed no disease progression and 100% overall survival among the pediatric patients.
  • This case series highlights various treatment options, including PUVA and narrowband UVB phototherapy for PMF in children.
  • Results suggest that papular mycosis fungoides follows a favorable clinical course, similar to early-stage mycosis fungoides.
