BACKGROUND: Mycosis fungoides (MF) combined with photosensitive/autoimmune diseases has been reported, yet there are limited data regarding the therapeutic considerations in these patients, specifically phototherapy, a mainstay skin-directed treatment (SDT), being a relative or complete contra-indication.
OBJECTIVES: To outline therapeutic considerations for patients with MF who had also been diagnosed with photosensitive/autoimmune diseases.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with MF who were treated at our center between January 2008 and December 2024with photosensitive/autoimmune diseases, especially collagen vascular diseases (CVD) or autoimmune bullous diseases (AIBD).
RESULTS: Eight patients were diagnosed with MF at a median age of 39 years. Seven had early-stage (4-IA, 3-IB) and one had Sézary syndrome. Six early-stage MF patients were diagnosed with lupus erythematosus (LE, 4) or AIBD (2) and were treated with SDT (topical corticosteroids/chlormethine gel), systemic retinoid or methotrexate. A patient with resistant early-stage MF and discoid LE was treated with electron beam and interferon. One patient who presented with variegate porphyria and localized MF was treated with electron beam. The patient with Sézary syndrome had inclusion body myositis. He was treated with low-dose total skin electron beam, methotrexate, extracorporeal photopheresis, and subsequently with romidepsin. After a median of 8 years, no stage progression of MF was observed. The Sézary syndrome patient achieved down-staging and was at stage IB. There was no aggravation of the co-morbidity in any of the patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Effective management of MF and associated photosensitive or autoimmune co-morbidities underscore the need for individualized treatment strategies in patients with these unique dual diagnoses.
