ABSTRACT
The computed tomography (CT) scans performed in 28 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) were reviewed. Fifteen patients had clinically advanced cutaneous mycosis fungoides, six patients Sézary syndrome and seven variant CTCL. Of the 40 scans available 12 were normal, 15 indeterminate and 13 abnormal. Indeterminate and abnormal nodes showed a predilection for inguinal and axillary sites with a relative sparing of deep nodal regions. Visceral involvement was infrequent. In six patients CT detected abnormalities not obvious clinically and upstaged the disease. CT should be performed as part of the initial staging and as a baseline for follow-up in patients with advanced mycosis fungoides, Sézary syndrome and variant CTCL.
