Abstract
The records of 52 patients suffering from polycyth˦mia vera have been reviewed. Follow-up has been from eighteen months to fourteen years. The response to radiotherapy has been considered. Remission can equally well be produced by whole-body X irradiation and by radiophosphorus. Radiophosphorus is more elegan and simpler.
