Recent Advances in Hodgkin Lymphoma

Theodoros P Vassilakopoulos and Sotirios G Papageorgiou

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is considered as a highly curable malignancy, but successful treatment can be associated with significant long-term toxicity.

The goal of modern treatment is focused on tailoring each patient’s approach according to age, risk of relapse and risk of short- and long-term toxicity.
