This retrospective analysis was undertaken to determine the incidence of interstitial pneumopathy and the clinical course after mantle field irradiation for Hodgkin's disease focusing on the role of radio- and chemotherapy. 136 patients were evaluable, 40 having received radiotherapy only and 96 patients having received combined radio-chemotherapy. The median follow-up time was 21.5 months. The overall incidence was 19%; 4 patients died of severe interstitial pneumopathy and 3 died of simultaneous severe complications. The radiation dose was correlated with the incidence of interstitial pneumopathy (P = 0.0021).
