A retrospective study was done on 33 patients who had staging laparotomies for Hodgkin's disease. The operation resulted in a significant change of stage in only four of the 33 patients (12%). We present opinions from authors supporting our belief that routine use of this procedure is not justified. Patients in stage I or II for whom limited radiotherapy is planned may benefit from the staging laparotomy. However, even some of these patients can be adequately treated with use of information from clinical staging only.
对33例行霍奇金病分期剖腹术的患者进行了一项回顾性研究。在这33例患者中，该手术仅使4例（12%）患者的分期发生了显著变化。我们列出了一些作者的观点，以支持我们认为常规使用该手术不合理的观点。计划进行有限放疗的Ⅰ期或Ⅱ期患者可能从分期剖腹术中获益。然而，即使是其中一些患者，仅根据临床分期信息也能得到充分治疗。
