Mycosis fungoides with high white blood count?

Mycosis fungoides with high white blood count is a rare type of skin cancer that is characterized by the abnormal proliferation of T-cells, a type of white blood cell. The exact cause of mycosis fungoides with high white blood count is unknown, but it is thought to be related to a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Symptoms of mycosis fungoides with high white blood count can vary depending on the stage of the disease. Early symptoms may include:

* Dry, scaly patches on the skin

* Itching

* Redness

* Swelling

As the disease progresses, the patches may become larger and more widespread. They may also start to ooze or crust over. In some cases, mycosis fungoides with high white blood count may also affect the lymph nodes, liver, spleen, and lungs.

Diagnosis of mycosis fungoides with high white blood count is based on a combination of factors, including the patient's symptoms, a physical examination, and biopsy results. A biopsy is a procedure in which a small piece of skin tissue is removed and examined under a microscope.

Treatment for mycosis fungoides with high white blood count depends on the stage of the disease. Early-stage disease may be treated with topical medications, such as corticosteroids or retinoids. More advanced disease may require systemic treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or phototherapy.

Outlook for mycosis fungoides with high white blood count is generally favorable, especially if the disease is diagnosed and treated early. However, the disease can be difficult to treat, and it may recur after treatment.
