After curative treatment of Hodgkin’s lymphoma, increased risk of certain solid tumors has been reported. To best of our knowledge this is the first report of metachronous pancreatic adenocarcinoma which developed outside the previous radiation field in a patient with relapse Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Herein we present an 81-year-old female who developed pancreatic adenocarcinoma four yea...

conclusions a high rate of 25% and 24.13% of hbv dna was detected among patients with hodgkin and non-hodgkin lymphoma, respectively. results three out of 12 (25%) hodgkin samples and seven out of 29 (24.13%) non-hodgkin showed positive hbv dna results. the results of sequencing revealed that the d genotype was predominant among the positive hbv patients. interestingly an unpredictable amino ac...

OBJECTIVE To report two cases of concomitant choroidal melanoma and intraocular non-Hodgkin lymphoma in two patients. DESIGN Case report. PARTICIPANTS Two patients with yellow creamy infiltrates in fundo. INTERVENTION Both patients had a complete ophthalmologic evaluation and histology was obtained after enucleation of the affected eye. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Histology findings of the en...

Hodgkin lymphoma with symptomatic osseous involvement can have a similar presentation to osteomyelitis. Common findings in symptoms, laboratory workup, and imaging can make it very difficult to distinguish between the two diseases. Excisional biopsy should be pursued if fine-needle biopsy is equivocal and suspicion of lymphoma is high. We report a case of a 40-year-old man who presented with a ...

OBJECTIVES AND DESIGN Non-Hodgkin lymphoma has been linked to infection with Coxiella burnetii, potentially through overproduction of IL-10 during infection with C. burnetii. MATERIALS AND METHODS Description of a case report. RESULTS We describe a patient with retroperitoneal non-Hodgkin lymphoma and vascular infection with C. burnetii. Immunofluorescence staining and fluorescence in situ ...

The gastrointestinal tract is the predominant site of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Multiple lynphomatous polyposis is a type of appearance of mantle cell lymphoma. It is characterized by multiple polypoid lesions involving long gastrointestinal tracts and it accounts for only approximately 1-2% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. A 78 years old patient was admitted to our Department of General Surge...

An adult woman developed polymorphic post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) 58 months after unrelated cord blood transplantation. She was treated successfully with chemotherapy and radiation therapy but presented with lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly 74 months after transplantation. A lymph node biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of nodular sclerosis type Hodgkin lymphoma (classical Ho...

background : there are only a few reports that exist regarding primary non-hodgkin lymphoma of the genital tract. in this article, one case of primary b-cell type non-hodgkin lymphoma (nhl) of the cervix is presented. case history: a 45 year-old woman presented bloody vaginal  discharge. upon vaginal examination, the cervix was found to be enlarged. cervical biopsy revealed b-cell type non-hodg...

Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is the third most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtype, accounting for around 6-8% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the Western hemisphere. Although MALT lymphomas are clinically indolent, the disease is typically chronic, requiring long-term clinical surveillance and, often, repeated biopsies. Pathologists thu...

Non-Hodgkin diffuse large B-cell lymphomas of the mastoid that extend from the nasopharynx are extremely rare in children. Moreover, in lymphoproliferative diseases, the presence of otoneurological signs prior to systemic disease involvement is rare. Here, we present a rare case of non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma invading the middle ear and mastoid in a 1-year-old boy that mimicked acute mastoiditi...
