Hodgkin's disease in the nasopharynx

J BUON. 2006 Oct-Dec;11(4):529-31.

Abstract

Nasopharyngeal presentation of Hodgkin's disease (HD) is an uncommon event with relatively favorable prognosis. It is predominantly seen in males and most papers are case reports. Here, we report an unusual case in a female patient with stage IA(E)HD treated by radiotherapy (RT), and achieving complete disease remission, lasting 26(+) months.
