Abstract:
A 39-year-old man with aleukemic monocytic leukemia cutis was treated with total skin electron therapy. The patient was irradiated twice a week for five weeks using three overlapping beams (SSD 145 cm) in a four-field technique with 4 MeV electrons. After delivery of 20 Gy, the nodular lesions disappeared. The patient tolerated the treatment well and showed no serious side effects.
