A Rare Case of Mycosis Fungoides in the Oral Cavity and Small Intestine Complicated by Perforation

Abstract: Extracutaneous involvement in mycosis fungoides (MF) carries a poor prognosis. Oral and gastrointestinal (GI) tract lesions are both rare locations of disease. We describe the clinical findings of one case with oral and GI MF complicated by perforation after systemic antineoplastic treatment, and review the relevant literature. The patient had a 1-year history of MF before development of tongue and palate tumors. He was treated with local electron beam radiation, but re-presented to the hospital after what was… Show more

“…The most common type reported was MF (CD4 + CD8 − ), followed by double-positive CD4 + CD8 + MF. Only 6 cases of oral MF reported large cell transformation [54][55][56]64]. Case 2 in this report will be the seventh case.…”

“…There are a total of 43 cases that explicitly mention prior therapies received before the development of oral lesions. Of these, 13 cases (30%) received TSEBT (TSEBT group) [ 27 , 28 , 31 , 35 , 36 , 38 , 44 46 , 54 , 55 , 57 ] and 30 cases (70%) did not receive TSEBT (non-TSEBT group) [ 13 , 15 , 16 , 19 , 21 , 22 , 26 , 29 , 33 , 34 , 36 , 37 , 39 , 42 , 43 , 45 , 47 50 , 52 , 53 , 56 , 58 , 60 63 ] prior to developing oral lesions. The time for oral CTCL to develop after the initial presentation of CTCL was 5.4 years and 7.3 years for the TSEBT and the non-TSEBT groups, respectively.…”

“…3 There are various case reports of extracutaneous MF involvement in any organ or tissue, the majority of which are anecdotal. [4][5][6] Extracutaneous MF sites can include a wide range of locations, particularly lymph nodes. 2 Oral and GI lesions are uncommon sites of disease involvement, both of which are associated with a poor prognosis and are found in latestage disease.…”

“…Although more than 20 cases of MF with gastric involvement have been reported, detailed clinical courses are available for only six cases, including ours, since 1970. [1][2][3] In a recent report, the median overall survival of patients with visceral involvement was 33 months. 4 On the other hand, in patients with gastric involvement, the median survival time from the onset of gastric symptoms was 3 months.…”
