The most common subtype of the cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is the mycosis fungoides (MF), which has a propensity to settle in the skin. In this Case Report, there was a Female patient, 62 years old, diagnosed with MF, who visited the dental team of a hospital to evaluate a swelling in the anterior region of the palate, which had been developing for two months and was causing some reporting discomfort when eating. An incisional biopsy of the oral lesion was performed, and histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis showed atypical lymphoid infiltration of T cells (CD3+/CD4+/CD7-/CD8-), co-expression of CD25 and presence of CD30 cells, corresponding to what is expected in terms of MF. The identification of CD30+ allowed the inclusion of a new chemotherapy protocol in order to control the development of MF. Such diagnosis by the dental team was crucial for therapeutic change and improvement of the patient´s clinical condition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
