Abstract
Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL) are defined as extranodal non-Hodgkin Lymphomas [1]. Among the cutaneous lymphomas, nearly two-thirds are of the T cell type with Mycosis Fungoides (MF) being the most common T cell lymphoma (CTCL) [1]. We will be reviewing the incidence, risk factors, prognostic factors, radiology findings, staging and treatment of the disease. To our knowledge this is the first study of its kind to be conducted in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
