Abstract
In patients with primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (CBCL) and primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL), extracutaneous sites may become involved and then polychemotherapy is indicated. Multi-agent chemotherapy may induce long lasting complete remissions in CBCL’s. Most CTCL’s, especially mycosis fungoides (MF), and CD30 negative primary cutaneous large T-cell lymphoma (PCLTCL) respond poorly or partially to Multi-agent Chemotherapy.
