Abstract excerpt

Sézary syndrome (SS) is a rare form of erythrodermic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with hematological involvement and a poor prognosis. At present little is known about the molecular pathogenesis of this malignancy. To address this issue, we analyzed 28 SS cases through the use of molecular cytogenetic techniques. Conventional cytogenetic analysis showed 12 of 28 cases with clonal chromosome abnormalities (43%)....
