| Abstract: | Two male siblings (ages 12 and 16 years) presenting with Hodgkin's disease are reported. They were both diagnosed as stage IVB with identical histological type — lymphocyte depleted. The presence of identical sex, shared environment and the closeness of the time of onset suggested a combination of both environmental and genetic factors in the aetiology of the disease in these siblings. |
