abstract: We report the case of a 36-year-old male patient who was treated with combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease in 1972, and developed a colon cancer 18 years later. Development of second malignancy in Hodgkin's disease patients and its relationship with treatment modality are discussed.
