Malignant lymphoma of the conjunctiva following Hodgkin's disease.
1988
A 64-year-old woman with mixed cellularity Hodgkin9s disease diagnosed in 1972 developed a malignant lymphoma of the conjunctiva 14 years later. She had undergone combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy for Hodgkin9s disease. Non-Hodgkin9s lymphomas developing after Hodgkin9s disease have been reported with increasing frequency in recent years. It is important to recognise a separate malignant lymphoma in a patient with Hodgkin9s disease because of the different treatment offered for each of these diseases.
