Abstract
Introduction: Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL) is a rare hematological neoplasm where neoplastic cells form a minority of the tumor and are surrounded by a reactive inflammatory medium that includes lymphocytes eosinophils, neutrophils, histiocytes, and plasma cells. The objective of the present study was to describe a population with this pathology and its survival in 7 years of follow-up.
Methodology: This longitudinal study was carried out at the Carlos Andrade Marín Hospital, in Quito, Ecuador, from 2013-2019, with a non-probabilistic sample of patients with HL. Demographic, clinical, laboratory variables, Ann Arbor classification, histological classification, treatment and response, mortality, and survival time were recorded. Descriptive statistics are used; bivariate and survival analysis.
