“…Chemo-radiotherapy might therefore be more efficient to control the disease. None of the previous studies focusing on IDHL found this difference, perhaps because of the small number of patients included [ 3 , 8 - 11 , 32 ]. In SDHL, two large randomized phase III trials (the RAPID trial [ 33 ] and the H10 trial [ 34 ]) underlined the importance of radiotherapy consolidation to reduce the risk of relapse.…”

“…As these patients are often excluded from clinical trials and few cases of IDHL are reported in most retrospective published series, no consensual standard treatment or prognostic factors have emerged for the management of these patients. In addition, most series of IDHL [ 2 - 11 ] were published when only CT-scan was available for the staging and patients were often treated with radiotherapy alone [ 1 , 3 , 6 - 12 ]. PET-CT has better sensitivity and is more accurate than CT for identifying HL localization, in particular extra-nodal involvement, and has been recommended for staging HL patients since 2007 (Cheson 2007) [ 13 - 18 ].…”

“…There are controversial results about the prognosis of IDHL in comparison to stage I/II supradiaphragmatic disease in the literature. All the studies compared them with their classical prognostic factors with limited numbers of patients and different treatment approaches 10,12,15 . After evaluation of all potential risk factors affecting metastasis/recurrence with univariate cox regression analysis and multivariate model sex, TLG and bulky disease were found to be statistically significant risk factors for disease free survival time in our study.…”

“…Although important subjects about prognostic factors and optimal treatment of isolated infradiaphragmatic HL have not been clearly determined, it is know that IDHL is characterized by higher male/female ratio, older patients' age at diagnosis and higher prevalence of lymphocyte-predominant histologic subtype in relation to supradiaphragmatic HL [8][9][10][11][12][13] . Whether pure infradiaphragmatic localization has a worse prognosis than stage I/II supradiaphragmatic disease has still remained controversial 9,[14][15][16][17] . Most studies pertaining to IDHL contain limited numbers of patients with different trea-tment approaches and varying outcomes roughly along a mean of 20-year follow-up 18,19 .…”
