Recommendations for the optimal radiation dose in patients with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma: A report of the Dutch Cutaneous Lymphoma Group

Radiotherapy is the first choice of treatment in primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (C-ALCL), but the optimal dose has yet to be defined. Based on the evaluation of 114 radiation fields in 78 C-ALCL patients, we recommend a dose of 20 Gy for the initial treatment of solitary or localized skin lesions and a dose of 8 Gy for initial treatment of multifocal lesions and for recurrent lesions.
