    Journal: Padiatr Padol; 1984; 19(3):259-62. PubMed ID: 6548008.
    Abstract:
    This article deals with the case of a three year old boys suffering from a M. Hodgkin stage IA who was given telecobalt radiation in 1975. A year later he was again given radiation because of a local recurrence and additionally treated by chemotherapy according to the MOPP scheme. Six and a half years after the first diagnosis we noticed the incidence of a not differentiated neurogenic intracerebral tumor. The question if chemotherapy and radiotherapy possibly cause the incidence of second malignancies is now under discussion.
