- We report a very unusual case of a patient with recurrent massive PEs eight years after mediastinal radiotherapy for HD, in which evidence of lymphomatous recurrence could not be demonstrated. The diagnosis of PE as a complication of radiation is presumptive, and other disorders causing PE must be excluded. This condition requires symptomatic treatment and a close follow-up of the patient.
