Seven cases of generalised non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (lymphosarcoma, giant follicular lymphoma and reticulum cell sarcoma) were treated by whole-body irradiation as a preliminary study in this centre. Historical background, rationale, treatment technique, and results of such treatment are discussed in this paper. All patients responded, two completely, and five partially. A multicentre clinical trial is recommended to evaluate the results of whole-body irradiation in comparison with chemotherapy in generalised non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.
本中心对7例全身性非霍奇金淋巴瘤(淋巴肉瘤、巨大滤泡性淋巴瘤和网状细胞肉瘤)进行了全身照射治疗作为初步研究。本文讨论了其历史背景、理论依据、治疗技术及治疗结果。所有患者均有反应,2例完全缓解,5例部分缓解。建议开展一项多中心临床试验,以评估全身照射与化疗相比治疗全身性非霍奇金淋巴瘤的效果。
