Abstract:
Papular mycosis fungoides (MF) is an uncommon clinical variant of early MF without prognostic implications that follows an indolent course over years. It is characterized by the presence of multiple, small, pruritic, flat-topped, erythematous papules, often presenting as a nonspecific papular eruption which makes early diagnosis difficult. We describe two cases of elderly patients with papular MF, a probably underdiagnosed entity, which causes a significant deterioration in quality of life of patients who may benefit from specific treatments such as phototherapy.
