Sézary's disease (or "Sézary syndrome") is a type of cutaneous lymphoma characterized by Albert Sézary.^[1]

"Sézary's cells" are T-cells that have pathological quantities of mucopolysaccharides.

Sézary's disease is sometimes considered a late stage of mycosis fungoides.

General

Sezary syndrome and Mycosis Fungoides are T-cell lymphomas whose primary manifestation is in the skin.

Etiology

HTLV has thought to have been associated with both of the above cutaneous mycoses.

Symptoms

The hallmark symptoms for Sezary Syndrome are (1) Generalized erythroderma (2)Lymphadenopathy, and (3) Atypical T-cells ("Sezary cells") in the peripheral blood.

Treatment

Vorinostat (Zolinza®) is a second-line drug for CTCL. Treatments are often used in combination.
