Abstract
We have described a patient with hyperprolactinemic galactorrhea associated with Hodgkin's disease and severe pruritus. Prolactin levels increased in parallel with the development of constitutional symptoms and returned to normal during successful treatment with chemotherapy. Explanations for the development of galactorrhea include chronic chest wall excoriation due to severe pruritus and cytokine-mediated pituitary prolactin release.
