Relapse localization in Danish pediatric patients with Hodgkin lymphoma.

The number of relapses were small, and conclusions regarding the selection of patients for radiotherapy could not be drawn. Relapse exclusively in initially involved sites were the most common, most often in the exact same initially involved lymph nodes. Hence, modern involved site radiotherapy, focusing on the initially involved lymphoma volume and minimizing the radiation doses to normal tissues, should be applied when consolidating radiotherapy is used in patients with pHL.
