Early clinical manifestations of Sézary syndrome: A multicenter retrospective cohort study

Erythroderma is uncommon as an initial sign of SS. Early SS should be considered in cases of nonerythrodermic dermatitis that is refractory to conventional treatments. In these cases, examination of the blood by PCR for monoclonal T-cell receptor rearrangement and by flow cytometry to identify an expanded or aberrant T-cell population should be considered.
