[Evaluation of the efficacy of radiotherapy in the combined treatment of generalized Hodgkin's disease in children].

An analysis of the results of treatment of 108 patients with Hodgkin's disease, Stage III, has shown a high efficacy of multiple modality treatment in children followed-up for 5 yrs. A comparative analysis of the results of the therapeutic programs (2 groups of patients) has shown advantages of the therapeutic program using COPP or CVPP chemotherapy programs for inducing remission which when combined with splenectomy and radiotherapy makes it possible to achieve 5-year survival in 86.6% of children.
