Lymphoma usually presents with painless lymphadenopathy. However, it can also present at an extranodal site. Presentation with skeletal muscle infiltration is relatively uncommon and can be confused with a wide variety of both inflammatory as well as neoplastic conditions. We report a patient who presented with progressive swelling of the lower extremity resembling inflammatory necrosis on computed tomography scan, but was later diagnosed as skeletal muscle lymphoma on biopsy.
淋巴瘤通常表现为无痛性淋巴结病。然而,它也可出现在结外部位。出现骨骼肌浸润的情况相对少见,可能会与多种炎症性和肿瘤性疾病相混淆。我们报告一例患者,其下肢逐渐肿胀,计算机断层扫描显示类似炎症性坏死,但活检后被诊断为骨骼肌淋巴瘤。
