title: [Routine laparotomy in Hodgkin's disease. Remarks apropos of 50 personal cases].
abstract: The authors report fifty personal cases of routine exploratory laparotomy during Hodgkin's disease, carried out in either first or second intention. They compare the results obtained to those in other series published in the literature. The results emphasize the undoubted change in classification after laparotomy, and consequently, changes in therapeutic attitude, but also raise new problems which leave the question open.
