Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL) are uncommon. Observations based on the first year of data from the Spanish Registry of Primary Cutaneous Lymphomas (RELCP, in its Spanish abbreviation) of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (AEDV) were published in February 2018. This report covers RELCP data for the first 5 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS RELCP data were collected prospectively and included diagnosis, treatments, tests, and the current status of patients. We compiled descriptive statistics of the data registered during the first 5 years. RESULTS Information on 2020 patients treated at 33 Spanish hospitals had been included in the RELCP by December 2021. Fifty-nine percent of the patients were men; the mean age was 62.2 years. The lymphomas were grouped into 4 large diagnostic categories: mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome, 1112 patients (55%); primary B-cell cutaneous lymphoma, 547 patients (27.1%); primary CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders, 222 patients (11%), and other T-cell lymphomas, 116 patients (5.8%). Nearly 75% of the tumors were registered in stage I. After treatment, 43.5% achieved complete remission and 27% were stable at the time of writing. Treatments prescribed were topical corticosteroids (1369 [67.8%]), phototherapy (890 patients [44.1%]), surgery (412 patients [20.4%]), and radiotherapy (384 patients [19%]). CONCLUSION The characteristics of cutaneous lymphomas in Spain are similar to those reported for other series. The large size of the RELCP registry at 5 years has allowed us to give more precise descriptive statistics than in the first year. This registry facilitates the clinical research of the AEDV's lymphoma interest group, which has already published articles based on the RELCP data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reliable prognostic factors for patients with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PCALCL) are lacking. OBJECTIVE To identify prognostic factors for specific survival in patients with PCALCL. METHODS Using the convenience sampling method, patients with PCALCL diagnosed from May 1986 to August 2017 in 16 University Departments were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS One hundred eight patients were included (57 males). Median age at diagnosis was 58 years. All of them showed T1-3N0M0 stages. Seventy per cent of the cases presented with a solitary lesion, mostly at the limbs. Complete response rate after first-line treatment was 87%, and no advantage was observed for any of them (surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy or other approaches). Nodal and visceral progression rate was 11% and 2%, respectively. 5-year specific survival (SSV) reached 93%; 97% for T1 patients and 84% for T2/T3 patients (P = 0.031). Five-year SSV for patients developing early cutaneous relapse was 64%; for those with late or no relapse, 96% (P = 0.001). Estimated median SSV for patients showing nodal progression was 103 months (95% CI: 51-155 months); for patients without nodal progression, estimated SSV did not reach the median (P < 0.001). Nodal progression was an independent predictive parameter for shorter survival (P = 0.011). CONCLUSION Multiple cutaneous lesions at presentation, early skin relapse and nodal progression portrait worse prognosis in patients with PCALCL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES A great amount of information on systemic and biologic therapies for moderate to severe psoriasis is now available. However, applying the evidence in numerous clinical scenarios has engendered debate; under these circumstances, the consensus of experts is useful. MATERIAL AND METHODS A scientific committee systematically reviewed the literature relevant to 5 clinical scenarios. An online Delphi survey of dermatologists with experience treating moderate to severe psoriasis was then carried out in order to shed light on questions that remained unresolved by the available evidence. RESULTS Twenty-three dermatologists responded to the survey and consensus was reached on 37 (56%) of the 66 statements proposed. These results led to consensus on various clinical situations even though firm evidence was lacking. Thus, intermittent therapeutic regimens and strategies for reducing the intensity of treatment are considered appropriate for optimizing biologic treatment and reducing costs. The measurement of drug and antidrug antibody levels should be included routinely when following patients on biologics to treat psoriasis. Concomitant psoriatic arthritis or a history of cardiovascular conditions will influence the choice of biologic; in these situations, an agent with anti-tumor necrosis factor properties will be preferred. Tailored management is important when the patient is pregnant or intends to conceive; drug half-life and disease severity are important factors to take into consideration in these scenarios. CONCLUSIONS A combination of systematic review of the literature and structured discussion of expert opinion facilitates decision-making in specific clinical scenarios.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous rituximab is a safe and effective option for the treatment of systemic non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma. The effectiveness of intralesional rituximab (ILR) in primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (PCBL) has been described in a small number of patients. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness, tolerance and adverse effects of ILR in patients with follicle centre (FCL) and marginal zone (MZL) PCBL. METHODS This was an epidemiological observational multicentre study of patients with PCBL treated with ILR. RESULTS Seventeen patients with MZL and 18 with FCL PCBL were included. The median number of lesions treated was two per patient. The treatment regimen used in 74% of the patients was a course of three injections in a single week at 1-month intervals. The dose per lesion and day of treatment was 10 mg in 71% of the patients. The median cumulative dose of rituximab per lesion was 60 mg (range 13-270) and per patient was 150 mg (range 20-360 mg). Complete response (CR) and partial response were achieved in 71% and 23% of patients, respectively. The median time to CR in patients who received 10 mg of ILR per lesion was 8 weeks. Similar response rates were observed in MZL and FCL. Median disease-free survival was 114·1 weeks. No parameters that significantly predicted CR were identified. Adverse reactions were recorded in 19 patients; the most frequent was localized pain at the injection site. Median follow-up was 21 months. CONCLUSIONS Intralesional rituximab is a well-tolerated and effective treatment for FCL and MZL PCBL. It should be considered a useful alternative in patients with recurrent lesions and in which the sequelae of radiotherapy or surgery would be significant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of disease severity is considered essential in the optimal management of psoriasis. OBJECTIVES: To describe the clinical characteristics and therapeutic profile of patients with moderate to severe psoriasis in Spain and to assess the impact of the disease on the patients' quality of life. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was an observational, cross-sectional study carried out in 90 dermatology units in Spain in 2009. We included 442 patients diagnosed with moderate to severe psoriasis who had started treatment with systemic agents, phototherapy, and/or topical treatments between 2004 and 2006. RESULTS: More severe psoriasis was significantly associated with the following: longer disease duration; higher prevalence of concomitant disease; greater involvement of the nails, scalp, flexures, palms, and soles; and poorer quality of life. In the 5 years before the start of the study, 68% of the patients had received conventional systemic treatments, 39.1% biologic agents, and 22.3% phototherapy. At present, 57.5% of the patients are being treated with biologic agents, 32.6% with conventional systemic treatments, and 11% with phototherapy. CONCLUSIONS: Severity of psoriasis was associated with a marked impact on quality of life. Regardless of disease severity, psychiatric comorbidity was the strongest predictor of poor quality of life. On average, patients had received other treatments, such as conventional systemic treatments or phototherapy, for more than 2 years before switching to biologic agents for the first time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the attitude of adult patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) to their disease and its treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS A multicenter, cross-sectional study was performed in patients with at least 2 outbreaks of AD in the previous year. RESULTS Two hundred twenty-seven dermatologists recruited 1441 analyzable patients, the majority women, with a mean of 3.6 outbreaks per year. Most of the patients (97.2%) indicated that they always or sometimes requested medical evaluation of a new outbreak. In the most recent outbreak, 72.2% had used combined therapy, regardless of the severity of the episode; 2-drug combinations were the most common. The majority of dermatologists prescribed combined therapy, most commonly a 2-drug combination for mild or minimal disease, and 3 or more drugs for moderate to very severe outbreaks. CONCLUSIONS Treatments used by patients for an outbreak of AD are similar to those prescribed by dermatologists in recent outbreaks.

Abstract
We describe the case of a 17-year-old patient with rapidly progressing and aggressive mycosis fungoides, with multiple cutaneous tumors and large cell transformation. She was initially treated with 3 cycles of high-dose chemotherapy with mega-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) without response, leading to the decision to undertake autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Partial remission of the disease was achieved with this treatment and subsequent introduction of oral bexarotene led to complete remission, which has been maintained for more than 3 years with good tolerance of oral therapy. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and the use of oral bexarotene.

Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that in vitro treatment of B16F10 murine melanoma cells with interleukin-2 (IL-2) enhances proliferation and metastasis. To further investigate the role played by IL-2 in human melanomas, we studied the expression of IL-2/IL-2 receptor and the effect of IL-2 on the proliferation of melanoma cell lines derived from primary (A375 and RMS cell lines) and metastatic (Hs294T cell line) tumours. We found a constitutive expression of cytoplasmic IL-2 and alpha, beta and gamma-subunits of the IL-2R on the surface of the three melanoma cell lines. The presence of IL-2 in the culture increased the proliferation rate in A375 and RMS cell lines, but no effect was observed in Hs294T metastatic cells. Biologically active IL-2 could be found in the supernatant of the three melanoma cell lines, particularly in A375 and RMS cells, in which an inhibition of the proliferation rate was observed when IL-2 was blocked. Moreover, the combination of anti-IL-2R beta and anti-IL-2R gamma blocking antibodies induced a significant down-regulation of cell proliferation in the three melanoma cell lines, and the combination of anti-IL-2R alpha, anti-IL-2R beta and anti-IL-2R gamma blocking antibodies inhibited IL-2-mediated growth stimulation in A375 and Hs294T cell lines. In RMS cells, a more significant effect was observed when only IL-2R gamma was blocked. Finally, exogenous IL-2 modulated the IL-2 endogenously produced by melanoma cells. These data show that IL-2 may modulate the growth of melanoma cells through autocrine or/and paracrine mechanisms.

Abstract
Serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) have each been reported as useful markers for melanoma progression. To evaluate the clinical relevance of these three markers, we simultaneously analysed their serum levels in patients with melanoma. A longitudinal study with a 3-year follow-up was performed and different stages of the disease were considered. Mean values of sIL-2R were significantly higher than in normal controls in all stages and correlated with the disease progression. The prognosis of patients with levels > 529 U/ml of sIL-2R was significantly poorer than in patients with sIL-2R levels < 529 U/ml. Levels of sICAM-1 were also elevated in melanoma patients, specially at the time of the metastatic disease. Serum IL-10 levels were more frequently detectable in the patients that developed metastasis during follow-up, and the prognosis of patients with detectable IL-10 levels was significantly poorer than in those patients with IL-10 undetected levels. Statistical analysis based on Logistic and Cox regression models showed that only sex, stage and sIL-2R value are factors significantly associated with metastatic progression. Moreover, high levels of sIL-2R could be a risk factor for malignant progression in melanoma.

Abstract
Bazex's acrokeratosis paraneoplastica is a clinically well-defined entity consisting of a distal erythemato-squamous eruption and nail dystrophy. It is always associated with neoplasia, mainly squamous carcinomas of the upper digestive and respiratory tracts; therefore, Bazek's acrokeratosis is considered to be a specific marker of internal malignancy. Two new cases of this syndrome are reported. The first was in a 41-year-old man with a squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus, the second in a 73-year-old man who presented with a transitional cell bladder carcinoma, an association not previously reported.

Abstract
Phenofibrate is an hypolipemiant drug derived from fibric acid. Cutaneous side effects such as pruritus, rash, urticarial lesions and some rare cases of photosensitivity have been described (1-3). The reported photosensitivity cases are clinically described as eczematous (1-3); some have been reproduced by photopatch-testing (2, 3). We studied a patient with a clinical and histopathological lichenoid eruption over light-exposed areas clearly related to phenofibrate therapy for an essential hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract
Enoxacin is a second-generation quinolone derivative recently introduced in Spain. Its activity comes through the inhibition of bacterial DNA-gyrase and it has a good antibacterial capacity against a broad spectrum of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It is presumed to be less toxic than the rest of the quinolones and its use is increasing, specially to treat infections of the urogenital tract. Cases of photosensitivity to enoxacin have been very rarely reported. We describe 2 patients with photosensitivity reactions due to this drug.
