Abstract
<p>A Japanese man in his 80’s visited our hospital with reddish plaques and alopecia on the occipital region, reddish plaques on the back, and reddish follicular papules on the right forearm. The patient had noticed them a few months earlier. Based on the histopathological ndings, we diagnosed this case as follicular mucinosis (FM). During two years of treatment with a topical corticosteroid,reddish nodules on the temporal and occipital region, and reddish plaques and papules on the left back appeared. We performed a second skin biopsy and diagnosed folliculotropic mycosis fungoides (FMF). Oral PUVA therapy achieved positive clinical effects for FMF. Our case suggested that oral and topical PUVA may be a good therapeutic modality for FMF. Skin Research, 17 : 265-269, 2018 </p>
