A patient with Hodgkin's disease developed acute radiation pneumonia four months after completion of mantle radiotherapy and during cyclical adjuvant chemotherapy. Respiratory function tests were useful in the diagnosis of the interstitial abnormality and in monitoring response to prednisone. Serial respiratory function tests in patients receiving bimodal therapy may facilitate early diagnosis of this potentially serious complication.
