RESUMEN
Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is now a highly curable disease, with an improving 5-year survival rate that has now reached 86%. At the time of presentation, HL is usually almost entirely confined to the lymph nodes. We performed a retrospective single-institution study of 384 cases with a median follow-up of 44 months, with the aim of identifying clinical and radiological characteristics and outcomes of patients with bone HL; 32 patients (8%) had primary bone involvement, always with concurrent nodal disease. These included 22 men (69%) and 10 women (31%) with the median age as 41 years. Advanced stages and nodular sclerosis histology prevailed among the subgroup. Radiographic features of bone HL are not specific but indicate a destructive malignant process with osteosclerosis and/or osteolysis. With current chemotherapeutic regimens, the long-term prognosis of patients with osseous HL appears good. The presence of bone lesions in HL should not be interpreted as implying a worse prognosis than without bone involvement.

RESUMEN
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a myocardial disorder probably due to the arrest of normal embryogenesis of the left ventricle. It could be isolated or associated with other extracardiac and cardiac abnormalities, including coronary artery anomalies. Despite the continuous improvement of imaging resolution quality, this cardiomyopathy still remains frequently misdiagnosed, especially if associated with other heart diseases. We report a case of LVNC association with both malposition of the great arteries and a very original coronary artery pattern.
