Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Thymic hyperplasia was noted after treatment was initiated or completed in all but two patients; and all did well, with one exception: a 17 year-old boy who was inadvertently treated for relapsed Hodgkin disease and who died of fibrinous pneumonitis and nocardia, with pathologic CR noted at autopsy."2.38Thymic hyperplasia with hemorrhage simulating recurrent Hodgkin disease after chemotherapy-induced complete remission. ( Erner, SM; Keller, SM; Langer, CJ, 1992)
"Of the 13 cases, 5 were Hodgkin's disease (HD), and 8 were non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)."1.33[Clinical analysis of reactive thymic hyperplasia following chemotherapy for childhood malignant lymphoma]. ( Ling, JY; Sun, XF; Wang, ZH; Xia, Y; Zhen, ZJ, 2006)
"Thymic hyperplasia is a poorly understood, apparently benign process that may be confused with recurrent lymphoma."1.27Thymic hyperplasia masquerading as recurrent Hodgkin's disease: case report and review of the literature. ( Edington, H; Longo, DL; Pass, H; Roth, JA; Salwitz, J, 1986)
