Abstract

Sezary syndrome is the leukemic part of the fungoid mycosis, characterized by erythroderma, surface adenopathies and atypical cells in blood. It predominates in men with a 2/1 proportion in respect to women, and in ages ranging from 60 to 70 years. It is a difficult treated disease, with a reserved prognosis because of the low survival. Due to its infrequency and possible similarity to other dermatosis, it is presented a case with antecedents of vulgar psoriasis of 5 years evolution, without improvement for around 6 months, in acute outbreak in spite of the indicated treatments.
