Familial Hodgkin's disease
Abstract
A family with Hodgkin's disease is described. Each affected member of the family had mediastinal involvement and in each case the histology was that of nodular sclerosing Hodgkin's disease. The significance of these findings with reference to the aetiology of the disease is discussed.
