primary hepatic lymphoma (phl) was a rare malignancy usually presenting with abdominal pain, malaise, hepatomegaly, b-symptoms, fatigue, nausea, vomiting and jaundice. it mostly involves liver without any palpable lymphadenopathy and leukemia in peripheral blood smear. on july 22, 2014, a 64 year old man presented with abdominal pain localizing in right upper quadrant and fullness from 2 years ...

a 34-year-old hiv positive-man was admitted to the hospital due to fever and abdominal pain. constant and generalized abdominal pain started 3 months prior to admission (pta) in upper quadrants of abdomen followed by mild odynophagia, early satiety and more than 20 kg weight loss since then. intermittent fever begun 7 days pta and cough, sputum and dyspnea started since 5 days pta. his general ...

  Primary Hepatic Lymphoma (PHL) is rare and possibly associated with viral hepatitis and autoimmune diseases. Scleroderma could exceptionally be complicated by lymphoma. We describe PHL occurring in a 52-year-old female suffering scleroderma for eight years, with no history of cytotoxic or high-dose glucocorticoid therapy. CT scan, performed to work-up abdominal discomfort, constipation, and ...

  Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of liver is a very rare malignancy. Here we report a case of primary hepatic Burkitt’s lymphoma in a 34-year old man who was known case of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and presented with weight loss, abdominal pain, and fever. Positive laboratory findings were mild anemia and elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alkaline phosphatase (AL...

primary hepatic lymphoma is a rare malignancy usually presenting with symptoms of fever, hepatomegaly, jaundice and weight loss. this picture mimics infectious and inflammatory disorders and thus delays the diagnosis. here, we present a 47-year old man with prolonged fever who underwent several investigations and, in the meantime, developed fulminant hepatic failure before the diagnosis could b...

Primary hepatic lymphoma is extremely rare. Although the utility of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) for imaging extranodal lymphoma has been reported, there is very little literature describing its use in primary hepatic lymphoma. This case report demonstrates the effect of FDG-PET/computed tomography (CT) in a case of unifocal primary hepatic lymphoma and its useful...

Primary hepatic lymphoma is a rare extranodal form of lymphoma. it may initially present as hepatic dysfunction resembling acute hepatitis, and clinical diagnosis of the disease could be delayed and complicated, occasionally progressing to fulminant hepatic failure. Here we report the featured radiologic findings of primary hepatic lymphoma on serial follow-up of ultrasonographic and computed t...

UNLABELLED The imaging manifestations of hepatic lymphoma, both in its primary and secondary form, are extremely variable and overlap with a number of other more common hepatic diseases. However, in the appropriate clinical context, combining the imaging and laboratory features can aid in making the correct diagnosis. Since the management and prognosis of lymphomas are significantly different f...
