Psoriasis in patients with mycosis fungoides: a clinicopathological study of 25 patients

Our results support the opinion that the association between psoriasis and MF does exist. It is most possibly related to the chronic lymphocyte stimulation that occurs during psoriasis that eventually leads to a dominant clone and the evolution to CTCL. Our study suggests that apart from cases of early MF, which are being indeed misdiagnosed as psoriasis, there is another group of patients, where psoriasis truly coexists with - or even progresses to - MF.
