Abstract
- In some patients with mycosis fungoides atypical cells ("mycosis cells") are found in the blood. Recently the T-cell membrane characteristics of these atypical cells have been described. In this paper the results of a study of the atypical cells isolated from the lymph nodes and the skin lesions of three patients with mycosis fungoides are presented. Using electron microscopy, it could be demonstrated that the atypical cells formed rosettes with uncoated sheep red blood cells, but not with antibody-complement-coated sheep erythrocytes, indicating the T-cell membrane characteristics of the atypical cells.
