Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are a diverse group of cancers with varied clinical and genetic characteristics.
  • Mycosis fungoides is the most prevalent CTCL subtype, posing diagnostic challenges due to its varied presentation and subtle microscopic findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review diagnostic tools and techniques for CTCLs, focusing on mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.
  • To align with the most recent World Health Organization/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (WHO/EORTC) consensus criteria for CTCL classification.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current diagnostic approaches for CTCLs.
  • Emphasis on clinical criteria, histochemistry, immunology, and molecular studies.
  • Synopsis of advances in immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, and gene rearrangement analysis.

Main Results:

  • Diagnostic challenges stem from heterogeneous clinical and microscopic features of CTCLs.
  • Integration of clinical, histochemical, immunological, and molecular data aids diagnosis.
  • Recent algorithms incorporate multiple approaches for improved diagnostic accuracy.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of CTCLs requires a multi-faceted approach integrating various techniques.
  • Advances in molecular and genetic analysis offer novel avenues for understanding and diagnosing these complex lymphomas.
  • Adherence to updated consensus criteria (e.g., WHO/EORTC) is crucial for consistent classification and management.
