In 88 patients with Hodgkin's disease the clinical value of the general lymphographic picture (lymphodynamic aspects plus nodal patterns) is analysed. The survival times are also reported according to the different pre- and postlymphographic evolution. Histologic types and prelymphographic therapy are correlated with the general lymphographic picture. The predominance of foamy and/or spotty lymphographic patterns of lymph nodes as well as the lymphatic blockages have a severe prognosis (mean intervals between lymphography and exitus 8.3 and respectively 6.2 months). In such cases lymphocytic depletion represents the most frequent histologic type.
