title: [Influence of the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease on the quality of life of cured patients].
abstract: Authors present results of an inquiry dealing with familial and socio-professional reinsertion of 130 patients who have been treated for Hodgkin disease. On a family point of view, after treatment, the rate of single people is higher than in general population. Even though one can observe marriages, and feminine sterility is rare, the number of children by married couple remains low. There is no change in rate of house moving. Most of cured patients return to work. This fact is related to duration of treatment, but variations depend essentially of familial situation, kind to work and quality of previous social insurance. For two groups of people risk of unemployement is higher: agricultural labourers who are often dismissed and contractual civil servants who meet with difficulties to be established. Definitive invalidity is rarely conceded by wearied social organisms. Finally cured patients appear most of the time comparable with healthy population. However they meet with important difficulties to get a loan or to contract a life insurance. Premiums are frequently raised and policies restricted. Difficulties are not related to organic sequelae. Cured patients still remain suspicious for their entourage and employer, that bring them about to hide the pathologic episode.
