Abstract
We report a 45-year-old man with mycosis fungoides (MF) who presented with
multiple epidermoid cysts, comedones and alopecia and who responded to trea
tment with intravenous and oral cyclophosphamide, The pilotropic variant of
MF, characterized histologically by follicular lesions and pilotropism wit
hout mucinosis, is uncommon and often resistant to treatment.
