Intravascular Malignant Lymphomatosis:Amelioration of Neurological Symptoms with Plasmapheresis
Ann Neurol 35:357-359, Harris,C.P.,et al, 1994
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Intravascular malignant lymphomatosis is a rare disease that is uniformly fatal when disseminated.Chemotherapeutic and radiation therapy regimens have provided short-term amelioration of symptoms but have not affected overall survival.We describe a patient with diffuse neurological symptoms who responded transiently but dramatically to plasmapheresis.This marked response warrants further evaluation of this therapy in intravascular malignant lymphomatosis.
