Introduction. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a form of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, and radiotherapy (RT) has been used to treat localized/limited lesions of MF. In this case report, the results of low-dose RT applied for palliative purpose are shared. Case Report. A 70-year-old male patient was admitted to the outpatient clinic 7 months ago with a generalized itchy rash. The result of the biopsy was reported as mycosis fungoides. Systemic treatment was not performed due to comorbid diseases. The hemibody RT was applied. 2 Gy was given per fraction, with a total dose of 6 Gy. The significant clinical relief was observed with 6 Gy RT. The patient died due to multiorgan failure 2 months later, and no recurrence was observed. Conclusion. The palliation was achieved in the advanced MF patient with fractionated 6 Gy hemibody RT for the remaining 2 months of life.

Chronic actinic dermatitis is a difficult to treat photodermatitis. Treatment is not standardized and involves topical corticosteroids and immunomodulators, and systemic immunosuppressive agents. We present a case with partial response to dupilumab, a monoclonal antibody approved for atopic dermatitis. In recalcitrant cases, systemic agents such as methotrexate, azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil, and thalidomide, extracorpeal electrophoresis, and low-dose psoralen and ultraviolet A can also be considered.
