A case of vascular purpura with scurvy.

A case of vascular purpura of the lower limbs in a 67 year old man is described. A diagnosis of scurvy was made in consideration of the absence of signs of vasculitis on skin biopsy, the history of a diet extremely poor in vitamin C and the prompt resolution of clinical picture with administration of vitamin C. The authors emphasize the importance of taking into consideration scurvy in the differential diagnosis of vascular purpura: this may spare expensive investigations and a dangerous delay in appropriate therapy.

[The therapy of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas in stage III and stage IV].

The features that distinguish non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin forms of lymphoma are briefly described, together with the method employed in classifying 45 non-Hodgkin cases treated with polychemotherapy and cobalt. The results were satisfactory. Remission (complete or incomplete) was obtained in 75% and 73% of lymphocytic and histocytic forms respectively. Survival after 5 yr was 50% for cases in the 3rd stage and 11% for those in the 4th. It is felt that the 3rd stage should be regarded as a generalised form, requiring the intensive systematic management offered by combining polychemotherapy and radiotherapy.
