title: Thyroid damage--after treatment for Hodgkin's disease.
abstract: Advances in the treatment of Hodgkin's disease in the last 20 years have led to a marked improvement in survival but also to a significant increase in treatment-related complications. Infertility, growth disturbance and carcinogenesis have attracted well deserved attention. This paper reviews the thyroid complications of treatment since these are important to patient and clinician and if missed may result in unnecessary morbidity.
