Résumé
Mycosis fungoides(MF) is representative of cutaneous lymphoma and over many years progresses to plaques and tumors steadily. The extent and type of skin lesions at initial diagnosis and the presence of extracutaneous involvement are predictive indicators of survival in MF patients. Patients with limited plaque lesions are the least likely to have extracutaneous involvement and thus have the longest survival similar to the control population. We report a case of 45-year-old woman, who developed multiple subcutaneous nodules in normally appearing skin during photochemotherapy (PUVA). She had been treated with PUVA for the limited pre-mycotic skin lesions (T1 stage), which themselves showed good response to the treatment. She experienced the insidious course of early stage, but thereafter rapidly progressed to the tumor stage unusually during treatment.

The primary lymphoma of the liver is a rare disease. We report a case of primary hepatic T-cell lymphoma associated with crescentic glomerulonephritis. The case, a 53-year-old male was presented with a 2-year history of hepatic mass and a 1-month history of foamy urine, rapidly progressive azotemia, and oliguria. The kidney biopsy revealed diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis. The result of immunohistochemical study of liver biopsy specimen was consistent with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in T-cell lineage. Because renal function was deteriorated rapidly and there were signs of volume overload, hemodialyses were performed. Although the patient received 2 cycles of combination chemotherapy with CHOP(cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisolone, and doxorubicin), he did not respond and died of sepsis.
