Popis: Between the years 1968-85, 1,177 patients started treatment for Hodgkins disease at the Norwegian Radium Hospital. In this unselected material from Norway the age distribution was bimodal with the highest incidence between 20-40 years of age. Survival is dependent on age, stage and histology, and was better between the years 1980-85 as compared with the period 1974-79. During the last ten years, treatment has been decentralized in Norway, and all centres cooperate by using the same protocol for staging and treatment. The article summarizes the results of the treatment, and related complications.
