Abstract
Staging of mycosis fungoides (MF) can be done through the TNMB (tumor-node-metastasis-blood) classification system, which stages the disease based on the extent of skin, lymph node, viscera, and blood involvement. Of note, stages IA to IIA are also referred to as early MF. Advanced stage is IIB to IV.
