Management of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas: Established and emergent therapies.

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is an uncommon group of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma primarily affecting the skin. It is comprised of a variety of entities with different clinical behaviours and prognosis. Mycosis fungoides is the commonest subtype, and Sézary syndrome is a much rarer form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. At this stage, control rather than cure is the goal of therapy, with particular emphasis placed on preserving quality of life. Our review of the efficacy, safety profile and accessibility of treatment modalities for mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome is a tailored guide for the clinician treating these rare conditions.
