Primary breast lymphoma represents less than 1% of all primary breast malignancies and most primary breast lymphomas are of B-Cell origin. The association of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), a very rare form of primary breast lymphoma, with silicone-filled breast implants has been suggested and several case reports supported this proposal, especia...

background & objectives: anaplastic lymphoma kinase (alk) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the genesis of several human cancers. alk was initially identified because of its involvement in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (alcl). alk is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops. studies reveal that the presence of anti-alk antibod...

a forty two years old woman with a history of bilateral breast augmentation for cosmetic reasons was presented for poor healing of the surgical site. tissue and periprosthetic fluid were removed from the wound site revealing an atypical lymphoid infiltrate. subsequently the patient developed axillary lymph adenopathy. excisional biopsy was performed. flow cytometry was non-diagnostic. she conti...

Breast is an uncommon site of extra nodal lymphoma accounting for 2.2% all lymphomas. B cell lymphomas are more common than T types. The most subtype Diffuse Large Cell Lymphoma. very challenging to diagnose as it has nonspecific clinical and radiological features. We report a rare case primary in 20-year-old female.
