[Hodgkin's disease in children. Stage IV. Treatment and results].

Without prior treatment, 13 children with stage IV Hodgkin's disease have received a multiple drug therapy (MOPP). Of these patients, 7 have experienced a complete remission; 3 a partial remission, completed in two cases by radiotherapy on the site of the residual disease, and the third by another combination chemotherapy. Out of the 10 children living as of July 1st 1975, 8 are still on first remission. Tolerance for the treatment has been good. The evolution of the disease and problems of treatment are also discussed.

[Diagnosis and evaluation of cervico-facial cancers in children].

Malignant neoplasia of head and neck in children are mostly embryonal sarcoma and non Hodkgin's lymphomata. Squamous-sell carcinomas are only 10%. The main locations are in nasopharynx and paranasal sinuses. Symptoms are corelated with location of the primary. Treatment depends of the pathologic type. Combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and sometimes surgery, yield now more cured patients, especially in embryonal sarcoma.
