Effect of dimephosphon on lymph circulation and microcirculation, contractility of the wall and cusps of valves in lymphatic microvessels, and cell composition of the lymph during fever.

Stimulation of lymph circulation and microcirculation and increase in contractile activity of the wall and cusps of valves in lymphatic microvessels are the mechanisms for a therapeutic effect of dimephosphon. These changes improve resorption and transport of tissue and cell metabolites from the interstitial space.

Lymph node grading for staging of mycosis fungoides may benefit from examination of multiple excised lymph nodes.

BACKGROUND: Lymph node (LN) histopathologic class has been shown to be a significant determinant of survival in patients with mycosis fungoides. Often, histopathologic evaluation of just 1 node is used in staging patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. OBJECTIVE: We examined whether sampling multiple nodes alters the staging and prognostic group placement of patients with mycosis fungoides as compared with sampling just 1 node. METHODS: Multiple LNs were obtained from a single, local region for histopathologic evaluation and grading in 8 patients with mycosis fungoides. RESULTS: Differences in histopathologic grading using multiple nodes were found in 5 of 8 patients. There was a potential upstaging of the assigned disease stage, compared with the stage that might have been assigned had just 1 node been sampled, in 3 patients. The differences in LN grading also potentially led to differences in prognostic group placement in 4 patients. CONCLUSION: Determining histopathologic grades from multiple LNs may allow a more accurate stage and prognosis to be assigned to patients.
