In a 7 year old girl who had previously been given intensive treatment for Hodgkin's disease with numerous courses of multiagent therapy including MVPP (nitrogen mustard, vinblastine, prednisone, procarbazine) and who received radiotherapy in a total dose of 32 Gy to the sternal, and 24 Gy to the cervical (left and right) and axillary (left and right) regions, an autopsy revealed bilateral bronchioloalveolar carcinoma of the lungs.
