Soft-tissue tumors can evade the usual diagnostic methods. In the case presented, computed tomography proved to be the best diagnostic tool in demonstrating a malignant extranodal lymphoma. Computed tomography is useful not only in detecting a tumor but also in determining its extent. This aids the surgeon in selecting and conducting the most appropriate operation.
