Lymphoma encompasses a range of cancers originating in the lymphatic system, categorized into Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Hodgkin lymphoma classically present as nodal disease, whereas non-Hodgkin lymphoma tends to involve extranodal regions. While it can be part of a systemic lymphoma, isolated nodal involvement is not uncommon. Extranodal lymphoma can affect virtually any organ or tissue, with the spleen, liver, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, abdominal wall, genitourinary tract, adrenal glands, peritoneal cavity, and biliary tract being among the most commonly involved sites, in decreasing order of frequency. We present a case involving a 54-year-old woman presented with left iliac fossa pain. A sonography was performed, which showed left pelvic mass, magnetic resonance imaging showed left ovarian mass with enlargement of the cervix. Computed tomography revealed enlargement of the pancreas and adrenal glands, along with masses in the kidneys associated with extensive pathological lymph node enlargement in the para-aortic and pelvic regions. The patient underwent biopsy of a para-aortic lymph node, which revealed a diffuse large B cell lymphoma.
淋巴瘤包括一系列起源于淋巴系统的癌症,分为霍奇金淋巴瘤和非霍奇金淋巴瘤。霍奇金淋巴瘤典型地表现为淋巴结疾病,而非霍奇金淋巴瘤倾向于累及结外区域。虽然它可以是全身性淋巴瘤的一部分,但孤立的淋巴结受累并不少见。结外淋巴瘤几乎可累及任何器官或组织,脾脏、肝脏、胃肠道、胰腺、腹壁、泌尿生殖道、肾上腺、腹膜腔和胆道是最常受累的部位,按频率递减顺序排列。我们报告一例54岁女性,因左下腹疼痛就诊。进行了超声检查,显示左盆腔肿块,磁共振成像显示左卵巢肿块伴宫颈增大。计算机断层扫描显示胰腺和肾上腺增大,同时肾脏有肿块,伴有腹主动脉旁和盆腔区域广泛的病理性淋巴结肿大。患者接受了腹主动脉旁淋巴结活检,结果显示为弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤。
