Learn About Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL)

What is the definition of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL)?
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are a group of disorders characterized by an abnormal accumulation of cancerous T-cells (a type of white blood cells) in the skin resulting in an itchy, red rash that can thicken or form a tumor. CTCLs belong to a larger group of disorders known asnon-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The most common types are mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome. In some cases, cancerous T-cells may spread to the lymph nodes and eventually to other body tissues and organs, potentially resulting in serious complications. The specific signs and symptoms vary from person to person. The exact cause of these conditions is unknown.
