New mycosis fungoides–like lymphomatoid reaction following COVID-19 vaccination: A case report
Abstract
Numerous cutaneous side effects arising from COVID-19 vaccination have been reported. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a rare indolent form of cutaneous t-cell lymphoma. While the pathogenesis of MF is not well understood, it is thought to involve immune dysregulation. There have been reports of COVID-19 vaccination induced flares and recurrences of cutaneous lymphomas and lymphomatoid reactions. We present the first reported case of COVID-19 vaccine induced MF-like lymphomatoid reaction.
