Abstract:
Hodgkin's disease, manifested as a second malignant neoplasm in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, rarely occurs, with seventeen cases reported including this cases. We presented the clinical and pathological features of a nine-year-old male child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in remission. He had cervical lymph node involvement 22 months after the diagnosis of leukemia as an initial presentation of Hodgkin's disease of mixed cellularity. A brief review of related literatures was also done.
