Amongst 128 patients with Hodgkin's disease six were found to have involvement of Waldeyer's lymphoid ring, one in tonsil and five in nasopharynx. Of these, three were histologically verified by biopsies taken from Waldeyer's ring, whilst three had histology only from upper cervical lymph nodes. Disease was confined to head and neck area by five, one had a more widespread process. Discussing diagnostic difficulties of nasopharyngeal involvement the importance of roentgentomography is stressed. Principles of radiotherapy are expounded and a more diligent search for detecting nasopharyngeal disease is proposed.
