[Mycosis fungoides with central nervous system involvement]

Mycosis fungoides at present is classified as a malignant cutaneous lymphoma of T-cell-type. Involvement of every organ is generally possible. Referring to autopsies involvement of the central nervous system is found by chance in about 10%. Since the first description of Mycosis fungoides there are only 20 reports published dealing with a clinical picture due to involvement of the central nervous system. Based on a survey of literature the scale of individual reports concerning involvement of the nervous system is analysed and a report is given on a patient with such a malady confirmed by autopsy.
