MYCOSIS FUNGOIDES-Local Injection of Triamcinolone.

Three patients with mycosis fungoides in the thickened plaque and early tumor stages of the disease were treated with intralesional injections of triamcinolone solution. Both triamcinolone diacetate and acetonide in concentrations of 0.75 per cent or higher were effective in reducing the tumors and symptomatically controlling the pruritus. Other parts of the same lesions treated with other substances or not treated remained unchanged.
