Sézary syndrome is an extremely rare form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. It presents suddenly and is associated with a poor prognosis. Clinical recognition is crucial for the diagnostic process and initiation of appropriate treatment. Plantar keratoderma is usually pathognomonic for Sézary syndrome and clinicians should be alerted to its presence.
