[Treatment of Hodgkin's disease, clinical stage I and II. Results obtained in 100 patients by combination of 1 or 2 cycles of chemotherapy with radiotherapy].

The results obtained by chemo+radiotherapy in 100 patients with Hodgkin's disease at stage I or II as defined by clinical and radiological staging are analysed. All patients were treated by chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy; 74 received a complement chemotherapy after the radiotherapy. Statistical analysis emphasizes the usefulness of associating two cycles of chemotherapy with the classical radiotherapy. With this treatment which gives a constant remission rate of about 90% a long-term chemotherapy is no longer necessary and the interest of exploratory laparotomy becomes negligible.

[4 years of use of a linear accelerator in dermatology].

A recent acquisition in external radiotherapy, electrontherapy is the direct use of electrons which are essential in radiobiology. By their physical characteristics, the rapid fall in absorbed dosage in deep tissues, the electron beam is especially well adapted to dermatological practice. Four years use of a Bordeaux linear accelerator permitted the authors to determine the indications for the technique, its limits and practical details of its use. Carcinomas are the main indications, especially extensive lesions, advanced, relapsing, or even after other methods of radiotherapy, and in certain localisations. Wide or total irradiation raises new prospects in the treatment of hematodermia, perhaps, hope of a cure.
