Primary Breast Lymphoma with Unconventional Presentation: A Case Report

Abstract: Primary breast lymphoma (PBL) is a unique clinical finding accounting for 0.4-0.5% of all neoplasms in breast with a painless palpable mass being a most common presentation. On histopathological findings and radiological imaging, Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most widespread identifiable type of PBL. We report a case who presented with Primary breast lymphoma having multiple metastatic lesions in lymph nodes, muscles and bones.

“…BL are classified as primary or secondary. The reported incidence of PBL is 1% of all non-hodgkin lymphoma and 2.2% of all extra nodal lymphomas [5,6,9,10]. The most accepted hypothesis for PBL is origin from intramammary lymph nodes [2].…”

“…Breast lymphoma (BL) is a very rare entity and accounts for less than 0.6% of breast malignancies [1][2][3]. It can be classified as primary breast lymphoma (PBL) in which breast is the principal site of involvement with absence of previously identified extra mammary lymphoma or secondary breast lymphoma (SBL) when there is breast involvement in a previously diagnosed case of lymphoma [4,5]. Considering the immunophenotype, B cell lymphomas of breast are more common than T cell lymphoma [2].…”
