Clinicopathological features of 36 patients, male: 58.3%; median: 68 years, with "peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified" diagnosed by the WHO criteria were reviewed. Majority (69.4%) had stage IV disease with frequent involvements into bone marrow, spleen, liver, and skin. According to the IPI, 72.2% were categorized as high or high-intermediate risk group. CR and PR were achieved in 12 and 10 out of 31 patients treated by CHOP-based chemotherapy, respectively. One- and two-year overall survivals were 60.6 and 25.0%, respectively. Performance status, serum LDH, and B symptom were significant prognostic factors. Survival of CD4-/CD8+ cases, corresponding to cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma, was significantly worse than that of CD4+/CD8-.
