Popis: Hodgkin's disease with a conspicuous presence of epithelioid-histiocytic elements was described as a particular subvariant of mixed type Hodgkin's disease. The authors presented four new cases. An additional increase of Langerhan's and interdigitating cells was observed in two cases, sarcoidosis-like granulomas with epithelioid and big multinucleated cells in the third. This female died and granulomas were found in several other organs. A prognostic relevance of this conspicuous reaction has not been clear for the time being. The mentioned patient deceased one year after the diagnosis had been settled, other three patients have been clinically well surviving 2-5 years.
