Please confirm the diagnosis. By your details it seems kids is having hodgkin's lymphoma, prognosis is dependent on extent of disease. Treatment of hodgkins is 4-6 cycles of chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy.

Dear lybrate-user chemotherapy is the answer. Since the tumor was already removed earlier and has recurred. Any residual disease remaining after 3 cycles can be followed by radiation therapy followed again by chemotherapy to prevent further recurrence.
