Lymphoma of the breast is a rare malignancy of the breast lymphoid tissue. It can present as either a primary or a secondary malignancy due to metastasis from a systemic disease. Secondary breast lymphoma (SBL) is one of the most common malignancies to metastasize to the breast. Once present in the breast, these masses are often difficult to distinguish from primary breast carcinoma on both physical examination and diagnostic imaging modalities. Differentiating these tumors is imperative because each has a different management plan. This report presents a rare case of SBL in a 55-year-old Hispanic female and includes a review of its presentation, radiologic imaging findings, and management.
乳腺淋巴瘤是一种罕见的乳腺淋巴组织恶性肿瘤。它可表现为原发性或因全身性疾病转移所致的继发性恶性肿瘤。继发性乳腺淋巴瘤(SBL)是最常转移至乳腺的恶性肿瘤之一。一旦出现在乳腺中,这些肿块在体格检查和诊断性影像学检查中通常很难与原发性乳腺癌区分开来。区分这些肿瘤至关重要,因为每种肿瘤都有不同的治疗方案。本报告介绍了一名55岁西班牙裔女性罕见的继发性乳腺淋巴瘤病例,并对其临床表现、放射影像学检查结果及治疗进行了综述。
