  • Title: Muscular infiltration of the limbs in Hodgkin's disease. Report of three cases.
    Author: Kuhn E, Stefanits K.
    Journal: Strahlenther Onkol; 1987 Jan; 163(1):6-8. PubMed ID: 3544292.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of muscular infiltration by Hodgkin's disease appearing on the limbs are reported. Diagnosis was based on various imaging methods (angiography, computed tomography and ultrasonography) followed by histologic verification in two cases. The pathomechanism of muscular manifestation remains unclear, haematogenous dissemination as well as progression from lymph nodes via lymphatics may be considered. Clinical symptoms were misleading in two cases. Radiotherapy was found effective in management of muscular infiltration.
