title: [Treatment results of Hodgkin's disease, stages I and II (author's transl)].
abstract: The results obtained in the treatment of Hodgkin's disease, stages I and II, are discussed comparing survival data of the literature after various radiotherapy programs and after combined modality using additional chemotherapy. In stage IA 90 to 97% and in stage IIA 75 to 80% of patients are not prone to relapse after extended-field irradiation. In stage IIB 0 to 80% long-lasting remissions are reported after radiotherapy. Additional chemotherapy improved relapse-free survival, but not overall survival in stages I and II. Subgroups are discussed which bear a high risk of relapsing disease (big mediastinal masses, E-lesions of the lungs, histological findings with lymphocyte depletion).
