Possible Clinical Significance of Serum Soluble Interleukin-2 Receptor Level in Primary Bone Lymphoma: Two Case Reports
In two patients with primary bone lymphoma (PBL) treated in our clinic, serum levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) reflected the clinical course. In both cases, sIL-2R levels were high before treatment and normalized with the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy, coinciding with the chan...
