title: Nontraditional treatment of mycosis fungoides in a dog.
abstract: A 14-year-old Dachshund with plaque-stage mycosis fungoides was treated and kept free of lesions for 25 months, using combination drug therapy of a placental lysate and low-dose prednisone. Mycosis fungoides has a poor prognosis and has had a history of poor response to treatment. Placental lysate with low-dose prednisone may offer an alternate therapeutic regimen in this disease.
