Lymphomatoid granulomatosis
摘要:
Although many patients respond well to treatment, 26 of the original 40 have died, in 14 instances in consequence of involvement of the lung. Massive hemorrhage from cavitative lesions was the mechanism of death in three. In six other patients, however, pulmonary lesions were healed or healing and death occurred from central nervous system or other involvement. In 25 per cent of the ultimate fatalities the patients had survived two years or more, one for as long as seven years. Progress to atypical lytnpltoma with involvement of lymph nodes and other reticuloendothelial tissues occurred in five patients (13 per cent). Six among the 14 survivors have lived more than four years after the diagnosis was made, and four are apparently free of disease. Although this has been credited to steroid therapy in three patients, another, with no evidence of disease after eight years, received no therapy whatever.
