Abstract

A patient presented with a cough of three months' duration as the sole manifestation of mediastinal Hodgkin's disease. Systematic evaluation resulted in prompt diagnosis and specific successful treatment of both the Hodgkin's disease and the cough. This case emphasizes that specific therapy based upon an accurate diagnosis almost always results in effective treatment of chronic cough.
