BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Lymphoma is the fourth most frequent malignancy diagnosed during pregnancy, occurring in approximately 1 over 6000 deliveries. DESIGN AND METHODS Its occurrence may increase due to the current trend to postpone pregnancy until later in life and the evidence suggested high incidence of AIDS-related non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in developing countries. The relatively rare oc...

We report the case of a 7-year-old boy who presented with rapidly advancing airway obstruction secondary to mediastinal T-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma. His brisk deterioration required transfer to the pediatric intensive care unit and intubation of the trachea. Unforeseen unilateral bronchial involvement led to gas trapping and critical pulmonary hyperinflation. Endobronchial advancement of the t...

We present the case of a 57-year-old woman with known Hodgkins lymphoma who presented with PET/CT findings of a breast mass and diseased axillary lymph node despite negative results from a recent routine mammogram and ultrasound. Needle biopsy of the mass and lymph node confirmed a diagnosis of infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast with nodal metastases.

Castleman's disease is a rare benign lymphoproliferative disorder, characterized by benign growths of the lymph node tissue. It is associated with a number of malignancies, including Kaposi sarcoma, non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkins lymphoma, and POEMS syndrome. This report describes the case of a 38 year old gentleman, presenting with painless hematuria. Initial investigations, including flexible cys...

Job-specific modules (JSMs) were used to collect information for expert retrospective exposure assessment in a community-based non-Hodgkins Lymphoma study in New South Wales, Australia. Using exposure assessment by a hygienist, artificial neural networks were developed to predict overall and intermittent benzene exposure among the module of tanker drivers. Even with a small data set (189 driver...

Midline destructive lesions of the face have multiple possible etiologies. The majority of these cases are found to be due to an extranodal lymphoma of natural killer/T-cell-type non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NKTL). Unfortunately, diagnosis is often delayed. With variable presenting complaints, including nonspecific issues like chronic rhinosinusitis or nasal congestion, initial treatments are aimed a...

INTRODUCTION Lung mass is a common radiological finding among elderly. Bronchogenic carcinoma with metastases is the commonest cause of lung mass with multiple nodules in same or other lung seen in this age group. However, sometimes other uncommon malignancies with better prognosis can also present similarly. Primary pulmonary lymphoma is one of the rare malignancies, which have similar radiolo...
