Does [ A retrospective analysis of the treatment result in Hodgkin 's disease in a radiotherapy clinic ]?
The optimal choice of treatment for patients with early stage Hodgkin's disease--combined modality treatment/radiotherapy alone/chemotherapy alone?--and for patients with advanced stages--consolidation radiotherapy?--remains an unresolved issue and needs further testing in large randomized trials considering acute and late complications. Staging laparotomy may be used only for a small group of patients who would receive radiotherapy alone as definitive treatment. Modifications of therapy clearly reduce the impact of negative prognostic factors.
