Serum levels of IgE in malignant lymphogranulomatosis.

Serum levels of IgE in malignant lymphogranulomatosis (Hodgkin's disease) were lowered in patients who had been intensively treated, without eosinophilic granulocytes, and in less advanced forms of the disease. High levels were observed in untreated patients with eosinophilic granulocytes in their peripheral blood, and in clinically advanced cases.
