[Hodgkin's lymphoma in children--histopathological and clinical features a 10-year experience (1978-1987)]
Abstract:
Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is a common neoplasm in children. In a 10-year period HL was found in 41% of all malignant lymphomas. Clinical and morphological features of 22 cases of HL are presented. HL was clinically manifested as an painless unilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. Males were slightly more affected, and the majority of the patients were from 5 to 15 years old. The most frequent histological types of HL were nodular sclerosis (45%) and mixed cellularity (40%). Although modern chemotherapy altered prognosis of HL and contributed to a favourable outcome of the disease in children, 36% of our patients died.
