Treatments for childhood Hodgkin lymphoma
If your child has Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), the healthcare team will create a treatment plan just for your child. It will be based on your child’s health and specific information about the cancer. When deciding which treatments to offer for childhood HL, the healthcare team will consider:
- the type of HL
- the stage of the cancer
- the number of lymph node areas that have cancer
- your child’s age
- your child’s overall health
Childhood HL is generally treated using chemotherapy, with or without radiation therapy. Find out more about treatments for childhood classical HL and treatments for childhood nodular lymphocyte-predominant HL. Changes to the treatment plan may be made based on your child’s response to treatment.
