Figure 2 SS patient no. 1. (a) Ambiguous GS pattern in skin biopsy at diagnosis; TCRVγII GR (*) confirmed by comparison with blood pattern; (b) GS pattern in blood sample at diagnosis showing a pathological GR (*) and a concomitant transient GR (**); (c) TCRVγII clonal GR in the second skin sample.

Figure 3 CD3 expression and corresponding GS analysis in MF patient no. 9. (a, d) The first non-diagnostic biopsy showing an oligoclonal pattern; (b, e) second biopsy with borderline histopathology showing the stable clonal TCRγ-GR 296VγIII/IV Jγ (*) and a dominant transient VγIJγ GR (**); (c, f) third biopsy with a massive infiltrate confirming the clonal VγIII/IV Jγ GR (sequence: Vγ10Jγ2); (d–f) CD3 staining showing a progressive increase in dermal and epidermal lymphoid infiltrate in the three consecutive samples.
