[Criteria for choice of therapeutic procedures in lymphomas].

Abstract

Surgery, high-energy radiotherapy and cyclic polychemotherapy are best indicated for the treatment of Hodgkin's disease and other forms of lymphoma. Overall evaluation will determine the most suitable management in each case. Clinical andpathological stage, the histological picture, the degree of vascular invasion and the immunological reactivity of the patient are the most important factors in such an evaluation. Close cooperation between the haematologist, histologist, radiologist, surgeon, radiotherapist, pharmacologist and immunologist will obviously be required.
