[Primary intestinal localisation of Hodgkin's disease. One case initially diagnosed as a benign eosinophilic granuloma of the small intestine (author's transl)].
Intestinal lesions in Hodgkin's disease remain relatively rare. Even rarer are forms in which intestinal lesions or mesenteric nodes remain the only manifestations of the disease for a number of years. In these cases, histological findings are usually less typical than in more usual sites and this explains the diagnostic hesitancy which sometimes occurs. In the case reported here, the diagnosis made and adhered to for four years and despite three successive operations was that of an eosinophilic granuloma of the small intestine.
