[Total skin therapy with electron beams. II. Clinical results in mycosis fungoides].
Between 1985 and 1989, 19 patients with mycosis fungoides were treated by Total Skin Electron Therapy (TSET). Overall and disease-free survival at 3 years were 72% and 40%. The complete remission (CR) rate was 100% in patients with plaque and 33.3% in those with tumor masses; patients with negative nodes had a 90% CR rate whereas in those with adenopathy the rate was 55%. Overall and disease free survivals were also correlated with these factors.
