Prognostic factors have been re-evaluated for 88 patients with Stage III Hodgkin's disease to see if they have remained significant on a long-term basis. Treatment had consisted of two cycles of MOPP followed by radiotherapy to the mantle, abdomen, and pelvis; all patients had achieved complete remission. Case material was grouped according to the presence of absence of mediastinal disease. Five-year survivals for Stage IIIA and IIIB patients were 85 and 80%; corresponding disease-free survivals were 76 and 73%. Significant prognostic factors include age, histopathology, and extent of abdominal disease, but the relative importance of these factors differs for the mediastinal and nonmediastinal patients. Modifications of current treatment policy for both mediastinal and nonmediastinal patients are discussed in relation to the prognostic factors.
