Syringotropic mycosis fungoides

Brief description of a syringotropic mycosis fungoides. We present the case of a 83-year-old patient with symmetrical, 3 months old, lesions of the hands (see Figure 1a). Erythematous scaly lesions on the back of the hand. (a) Clinical photography, (b and c) Microscopic view, x10 and x40 zoom respectively, hematoxylin-eosin stain. The histology revealed a syringotropic mycosis fungoides (see Figure 1b,c). This type of mycosis fungoides belongs to the subgroup of follicular mycosis fungoides in the WHO-EORTC classification of cutaneous lymphomas. It can present a wide variety of clinical symptoms.1 Purely pilotropic forms predominantly affect the head and trunk, while syringotropic forms preferentially affect the palms and soles.2 In our case, the lesions regressed rapidly following applications of DERMOVAL® (Clobetasol propionate 0.05%), with no recurrence to date.
