Abstract

Hypopigmented Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a rare variant of MF that usually has a predilection for young individuals with black-dark complexion. We present a 35-year-old woman in whom widespread hypopigmented macules and a few patches developed as the initial clinical feature of MF. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. Hypopigmented MF must now be included in the differential diagnosis of hypopigmented macular lesions not only in black or dark-skinned patients but also in white patients.
