[The role of radiotherapy in the treatment of Stage IIIA Hodgkin's disease in children]
Abstract
The report discusses the results of treatment of 54 patients (aged 2-14) with stage IIIA Hodgkin's disease. Radiotherapy was followed by relapse-free period in 60.6% only, although 5-year survival rate was rather high (90.9%). In the chemoradiation treatment group the said rates were 92.3 and 100%, respectively.
