Clinically, this area resembled alopecia areata (AA) and was without hypopigmentation or erythema. A scalp biopsy revealed a non\u2010scarring inflammatory alopecia and a superficial band\u2010like atypical lymphoid infiltrate with prominent epidermotropism. Atypical, predominately CD8\u2010positive lymphocytes were seen surrounding and infiltrating the bulb portion of several hair follicles. Treatments for her MF lesions have included topical bexarotene, topical corticosteroids and phototherapy. Her alopecia has been treated with high potency topical corticosteroids and multiple intralesional triamcinolone injections with very minimal hair regrowth to date. Alopecia due to cutaneous lymphoma is an uncommon phenomenon but can occur in erythrodermic MF or Sezary syndrome. AA\u2010like changes have most often been reported in conventional patch\/plaque stage MF and folliculotropic MF. In these cases, the atypical lymphoid infiltrate is comprised predominately of CD4\u2010positive lymphocytes. This is a rare report of a CD8\u2010positive MF causing AA\u2010like changes. This case highlights the importance of a scalp biopsy in patients with a history of cutaneous lymphoma presenting with alopecia in order to evaluate the nature of their hair loss.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/cup.12805","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,22]],"date-time":"2016-08-22T09:16:46Z","timestamp":1471857406000},"page":"1179-1182","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["CD8+ mycosis fungoides clinically masquerading as alopecia areata"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"43","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4362-5727","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sapna M","family":"Amin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Feinberg School of Medicine Northwestern University  Chicago IL USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Timothy","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Feinberg School of Medicine Northwestern University  Chicago IL USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joan","family":"Guitart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Feinberg School of Medicine Northwestern University  Chicago IL USA"},{"name":"Robert H.
