Abstract

We report the case of a man with mycosis fungoides (MF), who, 11 years after diagnosis, developed Hodgkin's disease. Although MF is associated with a higher than expected prevalence of other malignancies, including Hodgkin lymphoma, analysis of cells from the skin and lymph nodes showed findings that suggest a separate cellular origin for the two diseases.
