Leptomeningeal relapse in primary cutaneous DLBCL: Implications for a prophylactic CNS therapy

Abstract: Background Isolated leptomeningeal relapse in a case of cutaneous lymphoma is an uncommon event more so in a case of primary cutaneous diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (PCDLBCL). This phenomenon is of great significance as the subsequent prognosis becomes poor and the prophylactic central nervous system (CNS) therapy if administered, can reduce the chances of relapse, however, the survival benefit remains uncertain. The role of prophylactic CNS therapy is not well defined in the case of PCDLBCL. Case We report a … Show more

“…Two hundred seventy-two articles reported on 553 patients with otologic manifestations of hematologic malignancies, of which 255 (93.8%) were case reports and of OECBM level V evidence and 17 (6.2%) were case series and of OECBM level IV evidence (Supplement 3, http://links.lww.com/MAO/B834; Supplement 4, http://links.lww.com/MAO/B835) (4,5,7–10,13,14,19–282). While the largest proportion of articles originated in the United States (n = 83, 30.5%), the literature spanned countries across all continents.…”

“… 7 , 8 While there is currently no evidence-based standard of care, most cases of PCDLBCL, LT are treated as systemic DLBCL, with R-CHOP chemoimmunotherapy, often with central nervous system prophylaxis, due to the high risk of central nervous system dissemination. 9 The addition of radiation therapy to chemoimmunotherapy was found to be important in a recent case series. 10 Despite historical data showing that the outcomes of patients with PCDLBCL,LT have improved since the introduction of modern chemoimmunotherapy, outcomes remain relatively poor.…”
