Popis: Based on the treatment results of 300 Hodgkin lymphoma patients the authors formulated the basic approaches for radiation treatment in ABVD and BEACOPP-21 chemotherapy regimens recipients. In patients with complete response to chemotherapy any dose regimen (26 to 44 Gr) leads to 100% local disease control. In patients with major response to chemotherapy (PRor =80%) the 36 Gr total focal dose allows an adequate local control, more intensive local control doesn't yield better results. In patients with PR 0-79% the implication of total focal doses less than 40 Gr leads to statistically significant increase of nodal relapse rate. These treatment approaches may be implied by specialists conducting chemotherapy and radiation therapy in Hodgkin lymphoma patients.
