Skin Cancer Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma Plaque stage

Plaque stage CTCL lesions become red to brown, and elevated. Malignant cells multiply and the lesions thicken and show textural changes. They are most often found in the bathing trunk area. These plaques are variably round to oval and arciform or serpiginous. A single biopsy usually confirms the diagnosis at this stage.
