Granulomatous mycosis fungoides (GMF) is an unusual histologic subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.1 The diagnosis of GMF is usually established after observation of a granulomatous inflammatory reaction associated with a malignant lymphoid infiltrate. Epidermotropism, a clue to diagnosis in classical mycosis fungoides (MF) may be absent in about 47% of cases of GMF.2 In some instances, the granulomatous component may be intense and obscures the lymphomatous component of the infiltrate.1 There are no distinctive clinical patterns associated with GMF.1, 3
