Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) constitutes 0.6% of all the cancers diagnosed worldwide and 10% of all lymphomas. Ten-year survival rate for HL is estimated to be 80% and cardiovascular death is the prevalent cause for a non-malignant death among these HL survivors. We are reviewing the cardiovascular morbidities associated with Hodgkin's lymphoma from the available literature. We performed a systematic review of all articles published from January 1, 1960 to October 1, 2016 on the MEDLINE database using PubMed search engine. Key factors in the diagnosis and management of these conditions are discussed in individual sections.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
