ABSTRACT
Dramatic changes in the treatment of childhood Hodgkins disease have taken place during the past three decades. Contemporary combined modality treatment regimens produce durable disease-free survival in 90 to 100%of patients with early disease and in 70 to 85%of patients with advanced disease. Studies using chemotherapy alone also report high survival rates, and current studies are few to highlight the superiority of chemo-radiotherapy vs. chemotherapy alone. After the prodigious improvement achieved in response and survival rates, current strategies aim at reducing late effects of therapy, reserving more aggressive treatment modalities for patients with high risk features.
