In eight cases of Hodgkin's disease of various types, Ig was found within approximately one-third of the RS and HD cells. The Ig within each RS and HD cell consisted of gamma heavy chains and both k and lambda light chains. The most probable origin of the Ig would appear to be uptake of IgG-containi
