New Aspects in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Hodgkin’s Disease

Part of the book series: Recent Results in Cancer Research ((RECENTCANCER,volume 117))

Abstract

During recent decades prognosis and survival in Hodgkin’s disease have improved strikingly. For all patients, the rate of cure is approximately 75% and for the majority, with limited disease (stage I-IIIA), it is nearly 90% (Zittoun et al. 1985). Improving the quality of life for the majority of patients has also been a basic aim in recent years (Hœrni et al. 1983; Eghbali and Hœrni-Simon 1984).
