Abstract

An 76-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to right hydrothorax. The diffuse thickening of parietal pleura with increased fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) uptake was noted by computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET). Surgical biopsy was performed and the tumor was diagnosed as mucosal associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas of parietal pleura origin by pathology. Complete remission was achieved by postoperative chemotherapy (R-CHOP), and the patient is now alive without recurrence.
