Mycosis fungoides: A great imitator
Abstract
Mycosis fungoides (MF), the most common cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, typically presents in its early stage as inflammatory erythematous patches or plaques, with epidermotropism as the histopathologic hallmark of the disease. Over the past 30 years, numerous atypical types of MF, which deviate from the classic Alibert-Bazin presentation of the disease, have been described. These variants can simulate a wide variety of benign inflammatory skin disorders either clinically, both clinically and histopathologically, or mainly histopathologically. We have summarized the many faces of the disease, which set MF as a "great imitator," with special focus on the differential diagnosis and its benign mimickers.

“Mycosis fungoides (MF), the most common cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), is notoriously difficult to diagnose in its early stages due to its profound clinical and histological overlap with benign inflammatory dermatoses (BIDs).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
