Our findings support an inverse relationship between intermittent sun exposure and the risk of NHL. These findings are consistent with the growing evidence from various countries, but further studies, especially prospective studies, are needed in Asian populations.

Pre-leukemic granulocytic sarcoma (GS) may pose an initial diagnostic problem and its therapeutic approach has never been formally established. To our knowledge, non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation has been reported in cases of leukemic GS, but not in primary GS. We report a case of primary GS with extensive and aggressive presenting features and successfully treated with intensive chemotherapy followed by non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant. This resulted in complete remission with minimal complications. Our case demonstrates the potential of graft-vs.-tumour effect in the treatment of GS and suggests that non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant may be a feasible therapeutic approach for primary GS.
