rare, aggressive skin cancer involving malignant T-cells

Sézary syndrome is a rare and aggressive form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, a type of cancer that originates in the T-lymphocytes (a kind of white blood cell) and primarily affects the skin. It is characterized by the presence of cancerous T-cells in the blood, skin, and lymph nodes, leading to symptoms such as red, itchy, and scaly skin, enlarged lymph nodes, and sometimes hair loss.
