Cutaneous T lymphomas
Alongside the most common skin cancers – carcinomas and melanomas – rarer cancers develop from lymphocytes, the immune cells normally present in the skin. These are cutaneous lymphomas, of which there are several types. They must be differentiated from lymphomas developed in the lymph nodes, as their course and treatment are different.
