They specify when it is indicated and suggest the contraindications.Finally, they are of the opinion that laparotomy is irreplaceable in designing an adequate treatment.In the framework of radiotherapy as the primary treatment of Hodgkin’s disease, the placing of metallic clips during the laparotomy reduces the volume which will be irradiated and an anatomo-pathological examination permits the immediate initiation of chemotherapy if there is an invasion of the liver or as required if stabilisation does not occur in cases of lympho-histio-plasmocytic infiltration of the liver.Laparotomy also has the advantage of allowing ovary pexis in a zone which is not irradiated.
