title: Transfer factor in mycosis fungoides: a case report on a patient "cured".
abstract: A report is given of the successful treatment with transfer factor as an additional therapeutic agent of a patient in the tumour stage of mycosis fungoides who had not responded to conventional treatment with nitrogen mustard, methotrexate, or grenz rays alone. Besides twelve injections of transfer factor, the patient received X-irradiation, 1 400 r (50 kV 1 mm Al) in all, to three tumours. The combined treatment induced sustained remissions. When that patient died from a coronary infarct 5 years after treatment began, autopsy showed no evidence of mycosis fungoides at all.
