Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) of bone is a rare condition. Presented herein is a case of primary NHL of the calcaneus illustrating many of the classic features of the disease. Emphasized in this report are the nonspecific clinical and conventional radiographic features of primary NHL of bone, which may mimic inflammatory, neuropathic, infectious, or other neoplastic conditions of the extremities. The importance of early cross-sectional radiologic studies, such as magnetic resonance imaging, lies in the early characterization of the mass-like features and local extent of such lesions, helping to raise the suspicion of neoplastic disease.
原发性骨非霍奇金淋巴瘤(NHL)是一种罕见疾病。本文报道了一例跟骨原发性NHL病例,该病例展现了该病的许多典型特征。本报告强调了原发性骨NHL的非特异性临床和传统放射学特征,这些特征可能类似于四肢的炎症性、神经性、感染性或其他肿瘤性疾病。早期横断面放射学检查,如磁共振成像的重要性在于对这类病变的肿块样特征和局部范围进行早期特征描述,有助于提高对肿瘤性疾病的怀疑。
