This report clarifies the prognostic factors for survival in localized non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) of the head and neck and defines optimal regimens for this disease. One hundred-seven untreated patients with Stage I or II NHL of the head and neck were treated with involved field radiation therapy

Much of the approach to evaluation and management of the non-Hodgkin's lymphomas has been modeled after Hodgkin's disease. However, as the name implies, they are quite different. The non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are a group of diseases and syndromes. These many different presentations, syndromes, and pos
Background. Outcome in previously untreated patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the head and neck needed to be assessed. Methods. A retrospective review was performed of 79 patients with stage I or II non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the head and neck treated between 1964 and 1994 with radiotherapy (R
Recent studies specifically directed toward assessing the outcome of older patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) indicate that age per se is an important and independent prognostic factor for response and survival. We report a review of the clinical trials of the literature and the Aviano Group
An efficacious approach to the diagnosis and treatment of lymphoma requires the expertise of both physicians and surgeons. The surgeon frequently is required to provide an adequate tissue diagnosis, stage the disease, and treat complications of the disease such as splenomegaly. Often, abdominal and
