We report a rare case of primary B-cell lymphoma presenting as bilateral ear lobule swelling. A 56-year-old white man presented with a one-year history of painless swelling of both ear lobules. An excision biopsy confirmed B-cell lymphoma. Detailed systemic investigation confirmed the primary nature of the tumour. This tumour is rare in the ear lobule. A review of the English literature revealed no previously reported case of bilateral primary ear lobule involvement. Clinicians should be aware that this tumour can present as a primary in the ear lobules.
我们报告了一例罕见的以双侧耳垂肿胀为表现的原发性B细胞淋巴瘤病例。一名56岁的白人男性,有双侧耳垂无痛性肿胀1年的病史。切除活检证实为B细胞淋巴瘤。详细的全身检查证实了肿瘤的原发性。这种肿瘤在耳垂中很罕见。对英文文献的回顾显示,此前没有双侧原发性耳垂受累的病例报道。临床医生应意识到这种肿瘤可原发于耳垂。
