Girls face a 35 per cent chance of developing breast cancer by the time they are 40which is 75 times greater than the average. The risk of leukemia increased markedly four years after the ending of successful treatment, and reached a plateau after 14 years, but the risk of developing solid tumours remained high and approached 30 per cent at 30 years (New Eng J Med, March 21, 1996)

Extractions: Hodgkin's Disease is a "malignant lymphoma" virtually always starting in lymph nodes, formerly called "reticulum, cell sarcoma". It is a " lympho-reticular disease " that was first recognized by Thomas Hodgkins in 1832, who noted enlarged lymph nodes in patients not attributable to inflammation. Since then, there has been a continual sub-classification of the malignant lymphoma's, most notably into Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's types. The classic binuceated "owl's eyes" cells, termed " Reed-Stemberg " are believed derived from lymphoctyes or the monocyte-macrophage "antigen presenting" cells, and are pathognemonic for Hodgkin's Disease, which comprises 40% of malignant lymphomas. There are 8400 new cases of Hodgkin's in the U.S.A. each year, causing 1900 deaths. The incidence of Hodgkin's has remained fairly constant over the past 50 years. A small male predominance is seen, the male to female ratio is 1:3:1. In childhood cases, 85% are male. A " bimodal " age distribution is seen for Hodgkin's, with one cluster of cases in the 2nd to 3rd decade, and a second cluster in the 7th decade. In industrials countries, the disease tends to occur at a later age than in underdeveloped countries. The disease is rare in children under 10 years old. There are proportionately more cases in the older age group peak than in the younger age group. It accounts for 0.75 of the new cancer cases in the U.S.A./year.

Extractions: Dr David Porter - Medical Oncologist, Auckland Hospital Overview Hodgkin's Disease (also called Hodgkin's Lymphoma) is a relatively uncommon form of cancer. In 1997, the most recent year for which figures are currently available, 57 new cases were recorded in New Zealand. Hodgkin's Disease is very sensitive to both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The majority of patients undergoing treatment with these therapies can expect to be cured. The choice of treatment depends on a number of factors, such as age, and stage of disease (see below). Without treatment, this disease can be expected to progress rapidly.

http://www.answers.com/topic/hodgkin-s-disease

Extractions: Encyclopedia Hodgkin's disease, a type of cancer of the lymphatic system . First identified in 1832 in England by Thomas Hodgkin, it is a type of malignant lymphoma. Incidence peaks in young adults and the elderly. There is some evidence that it is caused by an infection (the Epstein-Barr virus is sometimes present), and studies of twins suggest a hereditary susceptibility. In addition, exposure to the defoliant, Agent Orange , has been strongly linked to Hodgkin's disease and other lymphomas. The first sign is often enlarged lymph nodes in the neck or armpit. Lymph node biopsy shows the multinucleated Reed-Sternberg cells peculiar to the disease. It spreads from node to node in an orderly fashion. Symptoms include itching, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. Because it affects the lymphatic system, the body becomes less able to fight off infection as the disease progresses. Radiation therapy and combinations of chemotherapeutic agents are used in treatment. By the 1990s most newly diagnosed cases were curable.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodgkin_lymphoma

Extractions: Hodgkin's disease is a type of lymphoma described by Thomas Hodgkin in , and characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells edit Unlike other lymphomas, whose incidence increases with age, Hodgkin's lymphoma has a bimodal incidence curve: that is, it occurs more frequently in two separate age groups, the first being young adulthood (age 15-35), the second being in those over 50 years old. Overall, it is more common in males, except for the nodular sclerosis variant (see below) of Hodgkin disease, which is more common in women. The incidence of Hodgkin's disease is about 4/100,000 people/year, and accounts for a bit less than 1% of all cancers worldwide. edit Swollen, but non-painful, lymph nodes are the most common sign of Hodgkin's disease, often occurring in the neck. The lymph nodes of the chest are often affected and these may be noticed on a chest X-ray.

http://www.ricancercouncil.org/issues/hodgkins_jun2001.php

Extractions: June 2001 Hodgkin's Disease is a disease that attacks young people, usually between the ages of 10 and 25, which probably accounts for its notoriety. Forty years ago the standard textbook of medicine categorized Hodgkin's Disease as an invariably fatal illness. Today the disease is almost uniformly curable. It is a triumph of oncology in the latter half of the twentieth century. We found that radiotherapy to the affected lymph nodes could produce a cure. We also found that combination chemotherapy could produce a cure.
