Primary pulmonary lymphoma (PPL) is a rare neoplasm. We report case of 45-year-old men who was admitted to hospital for multiple nodules and masses in both lungs. The contrast enhanced chest CT scans revealed varying sizes right upper middle lobes lower lobes. CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy performed. diagnosis PPL confirmed by histopathological examination Immunohistochemic...

Bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma is a rare disease. It is the most common form of primary pulmonary lymphoma but accounts for less than 1% of all non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas. We describe a 67-year-old man who, despite successful treatment of active miliary tuberculosis, developed progression of a concomitant bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. This case is in contrast to previ...

primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a t-cell malignancy with atypical cd30 positive lymphocytes. pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia is an uncommon finding in primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma, and may mimic squamous cell carcinoma as pseudomalignancy. careful attention of a pathologist to correct diagnosis of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia and its underlying cau...

Primary pulmonary lymphoma is rare. The most common histological type is the bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. This type of lymphoma has an indolent course and excellent response to therapy. One-third of all cases are diagnosed incidentally. However, due to the rarity of this disease, little is known about its natural history in terms of dissemination and evolution. Herein, we repor...

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is very uncommon in infancy and skin as the primary site of involvement in Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is rarely encountered. We describe a 10-month-old infant with T-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma who presented with multiple skin nodules as the predominant feature of her disease. The clinical manifestations, treatment strategy and disease outcome are reviewed. Key words: Non-Hodgk...

Bronchus Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma (BALTOMA) is a rare subgroup of pulmonary non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) comprising less than 1% of all cases. It constitutes 3.6% of all extranodal lymphomas and only 0.5-1% of primary pulmonary malignancies. They are usually low grade B-cell lymphomas and are considered to originate from the mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of the bronchi. ...

Background: Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHLs) is known as a heterogeneous group of malignant lymphoproliferative disorders. NHLs are classified into B cell and T cell types. Immunophenotypical assessment of the biopsy specimens can help diagnose NHLs.    Methods: In this study, 77 patients with B cell and T cell lymphoma were selected from Shahid Sadoghi hospital during 2010 to 2...

Lymphoproliferative disorders are rarely observed as primary lesions in the lung, representing only 0.3% of all primary pulmonary malignancies, ,1% of all the cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 3–4% of all the extra nodal manifestations of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The earliest comprehensive studies of pulmonary lymphomas were those of SALTZSTEIN [1] and PAPIOANNOU and WATSON [2], which were publish...
