Özet

Aim: Hodgkin's disease (HD) is a common malignancy in children and is curable in over 90% of cases. At diagnosis prediction of the outcome is important to avoid overtreating some patients and identifying others who need more intensified chemotherapy. In this study, our aim is to determine the prognosis among relapsed, deceased and patients who are in remission, according to erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), hemoglobin, leukocyte and lymphocyte levels that were taken at the time of diagnosis.
