Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a controversial and rare disease and there is still no agreement on its existence. Many cases have been reported in the literature, but clear diagnostic criteria have not yet been established. Most of the reported cases are questionable because of incomplete staging or the presence of extrarenal disease. Here we report a new case and a review of the literature based on a critical examination of the diagnostic procedure. Thus, probably only 29 cases, ours included, should be recognized as PRL, because only these cases fulfil the three diagnostic criteria and underwent complete diagnostic screening, including renal biopsy, bone marrow biopsy and thoraco-abdominal computerised tomography (CT).
原发性肾淋巴瘤（PRL）是一种存在争议的罕见疾病，对于其是否存在尚无定论。文献中已报道了许多病例，但尚未确立明确的诊断标准。由于分期不完整或存在肾外病变，大多数报道的病例存在疑问。在此，我们报告一例新病例，并基于对诊断程序的严格审查对文献进行综述。因此，可能只有29例（包括我们的病例）应被认定为PRL，因为只有这些病例符合三项诊断标准，并接受了包括肾活检、骨髓活检和胸腹计算机断层扫描（CT）在内的完整诊断筛查。
