Primary hepatic lymphoma is a rare variant of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with an incidence of 0.016% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The most common histologic subtype is large diffuse B-cell lymphoma. Pathogenesis is not clearly established and undergoing immunosuppressive therapy has been proposed as a risk factor for primary hepatic lymphoma. We report an intriguing case study, featuring a 23-year-old male patient with Crohn's Disease who had been receiving a combination therapy of thiopurine and anti-TNF for 6 years and was diagnosed with primary hepatic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
原发性肝淋巴瘤是一种罕见的非霍奇金淋巴瘤变体,占所有非霍奇金淋巴瘤的0.016%。最常见的组织学亚型是弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤。其发病机制尚未明确,有人提出接受免疫抑制治疗是原发性肝淋巴瘤的一个危险因素。我们报告了一个有趣的病例研究,患者为一名23岁的克罗恩病男性,接受硫嘌呤和抗TNF联合治疗6年,被诊断为原发性肝弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤。
