title: [Salvage chemotherapy in resistant malignant lymphomas (author's transl)].
abstract: A salvage chemotherapy was used in advanced malignant lymphomas resistant to previous chemotherapy. The chemotherapy schedule consisted by the monthly administration of vindesine and continuous infusions of bleomycins, associated with cis-diammine-dichloro-platinum in Hodgkin's disease (patients resistant to MOPP and ABVD protocols) and with DTIC in non-Hodgkin lymphomas (patients resistant to CHOP or equivalent protocol). In 10 patients with advanced Hodgkin's disease (stages III and IV), one complete remission and four partial regressions were achieved. Five patients are still alive after 6 and 14 months. In 15 non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients, two complete remissions and seven partial regressions were achieved. Eight patients are still alive after 4 to 12 months. Severe toxicities related to the chemotherapy protocol have never been observed. These results demonstrate the efficiency of the described chemotherapy schedules in advanced malignant lymphomas resistant to visual therapy.
