ABSTRACT
Woringer-Kolopp (WK) is a rare subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) with limited treatment options. Bexarotene gel is a topical retinoid used in the treatment of CTCL. This report describes three female patients (mean age 66 years) with WK disease who had an effective treatment response to bexarotene 1% gel. This treatment could provide a safe alternative to other current treatment modalities which have higher risks of potential adverse effects and lack of access to other conventional treatments such as light therapy.
