Overvew

The predominant therapy for primary cutaneous follicle centre lymphoma is radiotherapy. Adjunctive chemotherapy may be required.

Medical Therapy

  • Surgical removal and/or radiotherapy is given for localized disease.[1][2]
  • Radiation using multiple radiation fields is given if the disease has wider extent with grouped lesions.[1]:314[3][4][2]
  • For the less common situation of more extensive disease (still confined to skin), rituximab without chemotherapy is used.[1][3][4][2]Intralesional interferon alpha (IFN-α)[5]and intralesional rituximab have been used.[1][5]
  • There are mixed results of CHOP and R-CHOP. In one study on 104 patients CHOP chemotherapy demonstrated complete responses in 85 percent of the patients.[6]
  • There are also published case reports presented clinical responses to topical class 1 corticosteroids.[7]
  • Approximately one-third of primary cutaneous follicle centre lymphoma relapse, usually in the skin; treatment is similar to initial management[2] and overall survival remains excellent.[8]
