Characteristics and Outcomes for Hospitalized Patients With Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma.

The findings of this cohort study improve the understanding of hospitalized patients with CTCL and lend valuable insight into identifying factors associated with both in-hospital and long-term mortality outcomes. This refined understanding of the inpatient CTCL population provides a foundation for larger, more robust studies to identify causal risk factors associated with mortality, development of prognostic scoring systems to estimate the probability of hospital mortality. Overall, the findings may prompt physicians caring for patients with CTCL to implement preventive strategies to diminish hospitalization and improve clinical management across this unique disease spectrum.
