Bronchus Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma (BALTOMA) is a rare subgroup of pulmonary non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) comprising less than 1% of all cases. It constitutes 3.6% of all extranodal lymphomas and only 0.5-1% of primary pulmonary malignancies. They are usually low grade B-cell lymphomas and are considered to originate from the mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of the bronchi. Here, we represent a rare case of BALTOMA presenting with immunodeficiency and multiple pulmonary nodules.
支气管相关淋巴组织淋巴瘤（BALTOMA）是肺非霍奇金淋巴瘤（NHLs）中罕见的一个亚组，占所有病例的比例不到1%。它占所有结外淋巴瘤的3.6%，仅占原发性肺恶性肿瘤的0.5 - 1%。它们通常是低度B细胞淋巴瘤，被认为起源于支气管的黏膜相关淋巴组织（MALT）。在此，我们报告一例罕见的伴有免疫缺陷和多发肺结节的BALTOMA病例。
