[Survival rates in Hodgkin's disease in relation to histological subtypes (author's transl)].
Due to advantages of diagnostic and therapeutic progress the five-year-survival rates for 3 histological subtypes have become comparable in 322 patients with Hodgkin's disease during the years 1972 to 1979. Five-year-survival was 96% for the predominantly lymphocytic type, 90% for the nodular sclerosing type and 77% for the mixed cell type. Survival for all types together was 84% after 5 years and 80% after 7 years. The lymphocytic depletion type had a much worse prognosis with a five-year-survival of 31%. Apart from a reduced incidence of nodular sclerosis after the 40th year of life the histological forms were evenly spread between age groups and sexes On the other hand there were relationships between histological type and clinical stage.
