Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in children and young adults: a clinicopathologic study of 127 cases.
One hundred twenty-seven cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease in children and young adults at the University of Wisconsin Hospital between 1969 and 1980 have been reviewed. Nodular sclerosing was the most frequent histologic type in patients with Hodgkin's disease. Malignant lymphoblastic lymphoma (MLLB) was the most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The relationship of the histological pattern to age and sex as well as clinical behavior and survival are discussed.
