Blood. 2024 Aug 22;144(8):914-917. doi: 10.1182/blood.2023023584.

Abstract

Comparison of the 2007 EORTC/ISCL and the 2022 EORTC/ISCL/USCLC blood staging guidelines for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma at a single institution reveals the newer guidelines fail to detect a subset of patients with Sézary syndrome with low blood burden.
