[Results of therapy in Hodgkin's disease with special reference to polychemotherapy (MOPP)].

In patients with I and II stage Hodgkin's disease good results have been obtained with radiotherapy alone (complete remission in 100% of cases for 27.5 to 71.5 months; 9 years survival in 86.5%). In stage III combination chemotherapy was used with complete remission in 68.7% (9-31 months) and 4 years survival in 66.9%. In stage IV prognosis was poor in spite of combination chemotherapy and radiotherapy (3 years survival was 11.2% only).
