Abstract
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common type of cutaneous lymphoma. However, granulomatous MF remains a rare subtype. Its incidence is estimated in the literature to be 6.3%. Clinical and pathological diagnosis of this entity is difficult owing to clinical heterogenicity and various histopathological mimics. We report one such case.
