We describe 2 patients with rare primary pulmonary manifestation of Hodgkin's disease. Our 1st patient, who had unilateral pulmonary involvement and has been treated with segmental resection and cyclophosphamide, has survived greater than 18 years without relapse. He is the first patient reported with such a long survival. Our 2nd patient had bilateral pulmonary involvement and B symptoms and has been treated with an aggressive chemotherapy regimen. She is alive after 3 years without evidence of disease.

A case of primary malignant lymphoma of the bladder is presented. A 42-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with the chief complaint of asymptomatic hematuria. Examination of cystoscopy, IVP, ultrasonography and CT scan suggested a non-epithelial tumor of the bladder, which was reported as malignant lymphoma, non-Hodgkin, by findings of transurethral biopsy. Subsequent systemic CT scan, Ga-scintigraphy and bone marrow puncture revealed no abnormalities. Therefore, this case was thought to be primary malignant lymphoma of the bladder. Partial cystectomy with pelvic lymph node resection was carried out. The tumor, 2 x 1 cm in diameter, invaded into the middle portion of muscularis. Histological diagnosis of the tumor was follicular lymphoma, medium-sized cell type according to LSG classification, and immunohistological findings also showed B-cell lymphoma. Resected lymph nodes had no signs of neoplasms. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of vincristine, cyclophosphamide and prednisolone was performed. She has been doing well without any clinical evidence of recurrence for 16 months after the operation.

We report the case of a 65 year-old woman treated by radiation therapy alone for Hodgkin's disease. She developed febricule, nonicteric cholestasis, and inflammatory syndrome two months after irradiation. The clinical record, biological and histological results allowed us to dismiss another etiology especially an hepatic location of Hodgkin's disease. Out come after a twenty months predominance of pathohistological abnormalities in the centrilobular region were in favor of a radiation-induced hepatitis.

The case history of a young female patient is described, in whom a typical subacute thyroiditis of De Quervain was complicated by the occurrence of bilateral thrombosis of the subclavian and axillary veins. This unusual coincidence seemed to be suggestive of an association of these features with previous treatment, as 8 yr earlier she had been treated with mantle field irradiation and polychemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease. She recovered fully and at the time of the events described no relapse of Hodgkin's disease could be established.

A 58-year-old woman developed Sweet's syndrome one week after a flu-like illness. She was later found to have a centrocytic/centroblastic non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Six courses of chemotherapy were given during which the lesions of Sweet's syndrome resolved completely. As far as we are aware this is the first report of the association of Sweet's syndrome with a lymphoma.

A 46-year-old female was admitted to our hospital for fever and weight loss in September, 1986. Physical examinations were unremarkable. CBC revealed moderate anemia and leukopenia with abnormal lymphocytes. Examination of the bone marrow (BM) disclosed peroxidase negative blasts and multinucleated or multilobulated giant cells positive for CD30 (Ki-1) antigen. Chest X-ray was negative. CT scan and echography of the abdomen showed minimal enlargement of retroperitoneal lymph nodes (LN). Lymphangiography revealed mild enlargement of the LN without filling defects. Gallium scan was negative. Hence a diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease (HD) stage IVB was made. She was treated with MOPP therapy with modification and obtained a complete remission. BM involvement of HD occurs mostly in advanced stages. We assumed that this is a rare case of HD in which bone marrow metastasis occurred in a very early stage of the disease or that of bone marrow primary.

A 55-year-old woman presented to our hospital with abdominal fullness and edema of both legs. She had undergone a bypass operation by an ileotransversostomy for adhesive ileus following a drainage operation for acute appendicitis 35 years previously. We diagnosed the patient as having blind loop syndrome as a consequence of the side-to-side ileotransversostomy, and performed a right hemicolectomy and intestinal resection. The resected specimen of dilated ileal blind loop contained 15 crater-like lesions, proven histologically to be nodular proliferation of atypical lymphocytes. Lymph follicles had also proliferated in the mucosa of the blind loop and the histologically confirmed diagnosis of non-Hodgkins lymphoma of the diffuse medium-sized cell type was thus made. The etiology of such tumors is probably related to the alteration in intestinal environment caused by conditions such as fecal stasis, bacterial overgrowth, and bacterial toxins in the blind loop.

Due to it's rare appearance, the intestinal trichobezoar is usually not considered as a differential diagnosis of abdominal masses seen in children. A case of a 10 year old girl with a five month evolved inferior hemi-abdominal mass is cited. The girl appeared severely ill and within 24 hours of her physical examination, showed signs and symptoms of an intestinal obstruction. She was admitted to surgery with the diagnosis of a non Hodgkin lymphoma. Due to its' presentation, we may have even supposed it to be a case of Rapunzel syndrome which grew within the intestine causing obstruction or which may have initially grown in the terminal ileum. The medical literature is reviewed.

A female with Hodgkin's disease developed graft versus host disease (GVHD) after the administration of two units of packed red cells. Ten days after the transfusion she developed fever and rash, with subsequent hepatic and intestinal disease and a profound bone marrow aplasia. She died from a Candida tropicalis sepsis. The diagnosis of GVHD was made on the basis of clinical and histological criteria. We review this uncommon complication of hemotherapy, with special emphasis on its differential clinical features and its prevention.

A 55-year-old woman developed a secondary leukemia following 1-year treatment of Hodgkin's disease. She was admitted to our hospital because of the celiac lymphadenopathy. Open laparotomy was performed. Biopsy specimens of the lymph node demonstrated Reed Sternberg cells with mature lymphocytes. She was diagnosed as having Hodgkin's disease (lymphocyte predominant type). She was treated by the combination chemotherapy consisting of mitoxantrone, cyclophosphamide, vincristine and prednisolone for Hodgkin's disease in November 1986. Hodgkin's disease achieved complete remission and she was regularly followed. No abnormal findings were observed in the peripheral blood and bone marrow. But thrombocytopenia and the blastoid cells appeared in the peripheral blood in February 1988. The bone marrow specimen was hypercellular and occupied by 90% of blastoid cells that were positive for peroxidase staining. She was diagnosed as having AML from the bone marrow aspiration and biopsy specimens. She did not respond to several chemotherapy regimens and now she is treated by low dose Ara C.
