“…Since this time, the department has developed into a preferred primary care centre for patients with established or suspected chronic lymphocytic leukemia for a population of approximately 1 million people. Patients are treated according to the relevant international standard procedures, with staging and treatment strategies being continuously adapted to changing standards (26). Before 1994, first line chemotherapy consisted of alkylans‐based treatment, usually administered intravenously via a CVP line, or oral chlorambucil with or without prednisone.…”

The study comprised all 113 clinically and histologically confirmed cases of Hodgkin's disease aged 15-39 years who were treated at the Department of Hematology of the Faculty of Medicine in Belgrade from January, 1 to June, 30, 1987. For each patient, two individually matched controls were selected. Neighbourhood controls were the first neighbours of the same sex, age, and residence history. Hospital controls consisted of accidentally injured individuals, and they were matched in terms of sex, age, place of residence, and educational level. Comparison of cases and controls revealed that removal of the lymphoid tissue (either tonsils or appendix) did not affect the risk of developing Hodgkin's disease in any way. An association found by some previous studies has been explained by the confounding effect of socioeconomic status.
