Skin lymphomas are relatively rare. They may arise in the skin itself and as a by-product of HIV infection, or may arise elsewhere as a result of Hodgkin's disease, B cell lymphomas or leukaemia. Whatever the cause, they can easily be overlooked as psoriasis or dermatitis. Diagnosis of skin lymphoma is difficult and making the wrong diagnosis can prove fatal. Consequently, those in training in dermatology and pathology need to have a good understanding of the clinical presentations and the pathological correlates of this challenging disease. An Illustrated Guide to Skin Lymphoma is a beautiful full-colour illustrated text and atlas that combines pathology with clinical features and treatment. This second edition includes the latest classification systems for cutaneous lymphomas as well as brand new chapters and an expanded section on treatment.

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a general term for many lymphomas of the skin including mycosis Fungoides and Sezary syndrome. This book presents the state of the art in CTCL epidemiology, clinical features, pathology, immunochemistry, diagnostic molecular techniques, staging and prognosis, and treatment. Edited by one of the leading experts in the disease, Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma: Mycosis Fungoides and Sezary Syndrome provides comprehensive coverage of the disease and presents techniques for diagnosis and state-of-the-art treatment modalities, such as ultraviolet light, steroids, and topical chemotherapeutics.

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) has been described as a 'great mimicker'. The correct diagnosis hinges on effective collaboration between clinicians and pathologists to correlate pathological and clinical findings. The patient's history, lesion description and diagnostic work-up will help the pathologist interpret the histopathology, whilst the clinician’s diagnosis is aided by a clear understanding the terminology used in the pathology report. The treatment of early and advanced mycosis fungoides and its variants is potentially lifelong, with patients typically cycling among treatments, interspersed with periods of expectant therapy providing palliation and symptomatic relief. Effective management requires knowledge of the wide range of options, how they are used, and their side-effect profile, in order to tailor treatment to the individual patient. ' Fast Facts: Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma' is designed to help primary care providers, dermatologists, and oncologists to communicate effectively with pathologists in the diagnosis of this chronic condition, aided by over 100 superb clinical and pathological images, and to provide tailored long-term care for their patients. This concise, practical handbook will ensure clear communication with respect to the clinical presentation, histopathology, immunophenotyping and treatment of: • early and advanced mycosis fungoides and its variants • Sézary syndrome • other non-mycosis fungoides CTCLs. It is essential reading for pathologists, non-specialist clinicians and dermatology and oncology trainees.

Drs. John C. Hall and Brian J. Hall have assembled world leaders on this ever-changing topic of Cutaneous Lymphoma, to explore advances in research. The text first discusses the new classifications of cutaneous lymphoma. Epidemiology is then reviewed. A general approach to the patient suspected of having a cutaneous lymphoma is outlined. Diagnosis, histopathology, molecular genetics, and treatment of each subgroup is discussed. Precursors and mimics, which make this such a fascinating group of diseases, are reviewed. Systemic considerations of this primarily cutaneous disease are also covered. Molecular genetics of cutaneous lymphomas that have helped advance all of medicine are discussed, and finally, the future of this dynamic area of medicine is detailed.

THE PERIPHERAL T-CELL LYMPHOMAS Provides a comprehensive look at Peripheral T-Cell lymphomas, including the group’s unique geographic distribution, underlying genetics, and novel treatments Peripheral T-Cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a diverse group of lymphoid malignancies that develop from mature T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. PTCL represent 10-15% of all cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the US, and up to 20-25% of cases in South America, Asia, and other regions around the world. The role of different etiologic factors and the variation of geographic distribution makes PTCL one of the most difficult types of cancer to understand and treat. For the first time in a single volume, The Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas presents a comprehensive survey of this complex and rare group of blood cancers. Featuring contributions from an international team of leading authorities in the various aspects of PTCL, this authoritative text covers biology, epidemiology, classification, approved and emerging drugs, molecular genetics, and more. Detailed clinical chapters address diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of each of the major PTCL subtypes identified in the 2018 WHO Classification of Tumors of Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues. This much-needed resource: Covers the biological basis, epidemiology, classification, and treatment of PTCL Discusses the future of the field, including global collaboration efforts and novel approaches to PCTL Explores the role of biologics in PTCL and autologous and allogeneic stem-cell transplantation Offers new insights on molecular pathogenesis, innovative therapeutics, and novel drug combinations Features contributions from the Chairs The T-Cell Lymphoma Forum: the world’s largest meeting focused on PTCL Reflecting the unique epidemiology and genetic diversity of the PTCL, The Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas is an indispensable source of data, insight, and references for the medical community, particularly oncologists and hematologists in both training and practice.
