The authors report the observation of a young woman 22 years of age having presented the clinical and biological manifestations of disseminated lupus erythematosis, followed more than one year later by the appearance of Hodgkin's disease. Several etiopathological hypothesis concerning this association have been discussed but the experimental work of Schwartz has permitted the finding of a common denominator for these two diseases: a RNA virus, type C.
