Abstrakt: Conventional therapies for CD8+cutaneous T-cell lymphoma include topical steroids, topical nitrogen mustard, topical bexarotene, ultraviolet B therapy, psoralen and ultraviolet A therapy, local radiotherapy, and interferon alfa; however, these treatments are often found to be ineffective. Presented is a case of CD8+cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with near-complete response to narrow-band ultraviolet therapy because of chronic radiation dermatitis initially believed to be possible progression of a CD8+cutaneous epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma.
