Hodgkin disease: An analysis of 128 cases

Abstract
An analysis of 128 cases of Hodgkin disease seen at the Department of Pathology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, during the period 1968–1974 is presented with reference to histopathological and clinical findings. A male preponderance is noted in all age groups, and this is most noticeable in children under 15 years of age. There is a predominance of cases with the histologic subtypes associated with a poor prognosis (mixed cellularity and lymphocyte depleted). Only nine cases of nodular sclerosis type were seen.
