The authors would remind us that the classification of the hemato-sarcomas is at present being reorganized and that, lymphosarcomas are appearing more and more in the form of disseminated diseases sensitive to chemotherapy as well as radiotherapy. It is highly recommended that first a pre-therapeutic check be carried out in order to classify the disease into one of the five stages before deciding on the therapy.
