  • Conference paper
Lymphoproliferative Diseases of the Skin

Abstract

In man there are various clinical forms of T-lymphocytic neoplasia, including approximately 25% of acute lymphoblastic leukemia [6], a small percentage of chronic lymphocytic leukemia [5], rare cases of hairy cell leukemia [19], and all patients with cutaneous lymphomas, i.e., with mycosis fungoides, nodular papulosis, and Sézary-syndrome [14].
