Abstract
Despite the advances made in the treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma in pediatrics, we know that a percentage of patients, increasingly smaller due to the intensity of first-line treatments, will behave as refractory to treatment or relapse in a variable time.
However, in view of the changes that have occurred in recent years in first-line therapy and in the tools available for the rescue of these patients, this scenario deserves to be discussed and redefined.
