Natural killer (NK) cell activity and lymphocyte proliferation to mitogens might to have diagnostic implications that will help to distinguish between benign and malignant lymphadenopathy in children. In addition, we suggest that NK activity and especially the lowering of NK activity after chemotherapy might be of prognostic value in NHL children.
