Primary testicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (TNHL) was first described as a clinical entity in 1866. It is a rare disease which accounts for 1% of all non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 2% of all extranodal lymphomas and 5% of all testicular neoplasms. Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) is a rare but distinct condition caused by inappropriate and dysregulated activation of the immune system. We report a 47-year-old man with primary TNHL who developed HPS four months after occurrence of scrotal swelling. To the best of our knowledge, primary TNHL associated with HPS has not previously been reported.
原发性睾丸非霍奇金淋巴瘤(TNHL)于1866年首次被描述为一种临床实体。它是一种罕见疾病,占所有非霍奇金淋巴瘤的1%、所有结外淋巴瘤的2%以及所有睾丸肿瘤的5%。噬血细胞综合征(HPS)是一种由免疫系统不适当和失调激活引起的罕见但独特的病症。我们报告一名47岁患有原发性TNHL的男性,其在阴囊肿胀出现四个月后发生了HPS。据我们所知,此前尚未报道过与HPS相关的原发性TNHL。
