Mycosis fungoides with multiple oral mucosal lesions. A case report.

Mycosis fungoides is a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma which in its later stages affects extracutaneous sites, including the oral mucosa. A case is presented in a 69-year-old male in which oral involvement was widespread and rapidly progressive. Although gingival involvement, as seen in this patient, is relatively rare, it is useful for the periodontist to be aware of the oral manifestations of this disease since cutaneous lesions would most likely be covered if the patient were to present for consultation on an ambulatory basis.
