중추신경계와 폐를 침범한 말초 T세포 림프종 1예

초록

Mature T-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) has more frequent extranodal involvement and is less sensitive to chemotherapy than B-cell lymphoma. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma unspecified (PTCL-U) is rarely combined with pulmonary or CNS involvement. We report a case of PTCL-U with lung and CNS involvement that was treated with high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). A 62-year-old man was admitted with right-side weakness and paresthesias, and was diagnosed with PTCL-U after alung biopsy. Successful complete remission was achieved after threecycles of IMEP (ifosfamide, methotrexate, etoposide, and prednisone) chemotherapywith concurrent intrathecal chemotherapy and subsequent high-dose chemotherapy with ASCT to treat potential advanced stage PTCL-U. The non-anthracycline-containing IMEP regimen can be effective for PTCL-U, especially in cases with CNS involvement.
