rare skin lymphoma targeting hair follicles, causing hair loss

Folliculotropic Mycosis Fungoides (FMF) is a rare variant of mycosis fungoides, which is a type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

This condition often requires specialized dermatological and oncological care for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
