We present a case series of 14 patients with lymphoma presenting with tumor thrombus to highlight this rare but important manifestation of lymphoma.
The dominant mass leading to tumor thrombus formation was nodal disease in nine patients and extranodal disease in five patients. Lymphoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis in the setting of tumor thrombus with solid organ involvement when there are other imaging features suggestive of lymphoma.
我们报告了一组14例伴有肿瘤血栓的淋巴瘤患者病例系列,以突出这种罕见但重要的淋巴瘤表现。
导致肿瘤血栓形成的主要肿块在9例患者中为淋巴结疾病,在5例患者中为结外疾病。当存在其他提示淋巴瘤的影像学特征时,在伴有实体器官受累的肿瘤血栓情况下,鉴别诊断应考虑淋巴瘤。
