The ISCL/EORTC recommends revisions to the Mycosis Fungoides Cooperative Group classification and staging system for Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma. (CTCL). These revisions are made to incorporate advances related to tumor cell biology and diagnostic techniques as pertains to mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sezary Syndrome (SS) since the 1979 publication of the original guidelines, to clarify certain variables that currently impede effective inter-institution and inter-investigator communication and/or the development of standardized clinical trials in MF and SS, and to provide a platform for tracking other variables of potential prognostic significance. Moreover, given the difference in prognosis and clinical characteristics of the non-MF/non-SS subtypes of cutaneous lymphoma, this revision pertains specifically to MF and SS. The evidence supporting the revisions is discussed as well as recommendations for evaluation and staging procedures based on these revisions.
