T\u2010cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement assays provide ancillary evidence of clonality but lack spatial resolution. We evaluated the feasibility of RNA in\u00a0situ hybridization (RNA\u2010ISH) targeting TCR beta constant isoforms, TRBC1 and TRBC2, in routine skin biopsies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We retrospectively analyzed 15 MF biopsies, predominantly Stage IA\u2013IB, and 11 inflammatory controls using TRBC1 and TRBC2 RNA\u2010ISH on separate sections.

Nine MF cases (60%) showed TRBC skewing, three (20%) were indeterminate, and three (20%) were double negative. All controls showed balanced polytypic expression. Exploratory sensitivity was 60% (95% CI, 32.3%\u201383.7%) and specificity 100% (95% CI, 71.5%\u2013100%). Substantial discordance with available PCR results was observed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>TRBC1\/TRBC2 RNA\u2010ISH is technically feasible in archival skin and can demonstrate spatial isoform skewing in a subset of MF biopsies.
