• Publications relating to cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) (principally mycosis fungoides and the Sézary syndrome), which appeared primarily from 1977 to 1979, are reviewed. A wide variety of topics, including pathogenesis, immunologic characteristics, lymphoid cell morphologic characteristics, cytogenetics, clinical reports, and topical, radiation, and other therapies, are included. Although CTCLs make up a relatively small part of the spectrum of cutaneous disease, the impressive body of literature speaks for a considerable interest in this group of potentially fatal disorders.
