Abstract
A combined group of doctors working in different hospitals
speculated that Hodgkin's disease is initiated by two events in fetal
life. On the whole, pregnancy related factors, such as intra-uterine
infection and factors associated with preterm labor, may be involved in
lymphoma #pathogenesis. Therefore, a Nigerian case is deemed to be
reportable because the lesions, which appeared at birth, continued till
the age of 1 year when the diagnosis was confirmed following surgical
biopsy.In a population-based study of California birth Certificates [1],
#"intra-uterine infections and factors associated with #preterm labor may
be involved in lymphoma pathogenesis." Elsewhere, "in a large national
cohort study, family history of NHL high fetal growth, older maternal
age, low birth order, and male sex were independent risk factors for
NHL, in early life" [2]. What of the individual case? This came to light
among the Ibo ethnic group [3]. On account of the facility of
establishing of a histopathology data pool, which was recommended by a
Birmingham (UK) group [4], this was used by the senior author (WIBO) and
his clinical colleague (GU) in the following case.
