Abstract
A preliminary report on follow up of 15 patients treated with Methotrexate (MTX) is presented. All 5 cases where MTX was discontinued after achieving remission and giving maintenance therapy for 8 to 12 weeks have relapsed within 10 weeks of stoppage of MTX. No major toxicity was seen in any patient.
