OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the response to and @entity137 of chemo-radiotherapy ( @entity138 ) in @entity1 with early stage @entity978 treated in our institution. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective study of 42 @entity1 with early stage @entity978 treated between 2002 and 2007. RESULTS: The age of @entity1 ranges from 11 to 57 with a mean of 30.7 years; the sex-ratio is 0.8 (19 males and 23 females). There are 33 cases of nodular-sclerosing @entity978 , 6 of mixed cellularity, one lymphocyte-rich, one interfollicular and one granulomatous. As for the stages, 31 @entity978 are stage IIA, 6 stage IA, 3 bulky and 2 stage IAe. The ABVD protocol was given to 38 @entity1 , the VBVP to 3 @entity1 and the ABV to one @entity1 . IFRT was used with dose ranging from 19.8 to 39.6 Gy. The acute @entity137 of chemotherapy was hematologic only, grade 1 @entity417 accounting for 11.1% and grade 2 @entity417 for 14.8%, grade 1 @entity1431 for 51.8%, grade 2 @entity1431 for 333% and grade 3 @entity1431 for 14.8%. @entity1282 , radiodermitis and radiomucositis were seen after radiotherapy, accounting for 16.5%, 4.6% and 9.1% respectively. No long-term @entity137 of the combined therapy was found. During the follow-up period, one relapse occurred and no @entity204 was reported. CONCLUSION: The overall survival (OS), the disease free survival (DFS) and the @entity137 of the combined therapy @entity138 of the @entity1 with early stage @entity978 stage IA and IIA treated in our institution were similar to those seen in the literature.
