[Hodgkin's disease complicating actinoreticulosis].
The authors describe the occurrence of Hodgkin's disease in a patient suffering from actinic reticuloid since 12 years. The severity of the disease (MED less than 1 mJ/cm2 UVB) imposed corticosteroids and immunosuppressive therapy (chlorambucil). The role of actinic reticuloid's pathogeny (persistent light reaction) and principally use of immunosuppressive drugs are discussed and may explain the occurrence of Hodgkin's disease.
