Summary

Two hundred forty-five cases of Hodgkin's disease obtained from two centers in Beirut, Lebanon, were studied as to sex and age distribution.

The sex incidence among adults was 69% males and 31% females, which is in agreement with the literature. The sex incidence among children below the age of 15 years was 65.5% males and 34.5% females, which is different from the 4:1 ratio reported in the literature.

Of those 245 cases, 22.45% were below the age of 15 years, which is higher than that reported from elsewhere.
