title: [Non-Hodgkin lymphoma with Ki-1 antigen: a case report].
abstract: An 89-year-old female with fever, lymphoadenopathy and swelling of both upper extremities was admitted. The pathological specimen of enlarged lymph node showed diffuse anaplastic large cell lymphoma, reacted with the antibody Ki-1 (CD 30), and was diagnosed as Ki-1 lymphoma. She was successfully treated with CPM 700 mg (day 1), ADM 20 mg (day 1), VCR 1 mg (day 1) and PSL 60 mg (day 1-5). She showed improved quality of life. This case can be a model for treatment of elderly patients.
