Question

A 24‐year‐old woman presents with a painless 3 × 3 cm left‐sided neck mass that did not improve with antibiotics given to her by her general practitioner. Physical exam demonstrates only adenopathy in the left anterior cervical region; the spleen tip is just palpable with deep inspiration. Biopsy of an anterior cervical node reveals nodular sclerosing Hodgkin lymphoma. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) shows Deauville 5 uptake in the left neck, but no uptake in the spleen or in other nodal groups. She has lost 3 kg in the last year and now weighs 62 kg. She does not have night sweats or unexplained fevers. Which ONE of the following stages is her disease?

A. IIA
B. IA
