Abstract:
A descriptive study was made of 5 malignant lymphomas of the head and neck in children seen in 1986-1995. Male sex and age over 5 years predominated, and the mortality was high, particularly in cases of non Hodgkin's lymphoma. Diagnostic procedure, classification, and the current therapeutic protocol combining irradiation and multiple chemotherapy are reviewed.
