Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) are a diverse group of blood cancers derived from lymphocytes that vary significantly in their severity. Surgery is not often used as a treatment because of the efficacy of chemotherapy, biological therapy, radiotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We reviewed the natural history and possible role of surgery for NHL. Surgery may be useful in confirming or refuting an equivocal radiological diagnosis through biopsy, removing symptomatic limited disease from an affected organ and in splenectomy for primary splenic lymphoma. Emergency abdominal surgery for acute complications of NHL provides palliation and diagnosis. There is as yet no consensus as to the optimum treatment for symptomatic limited disease affecting an organ and timing of chemotherapy perioperatively. Prospective randomized trials are required.

Characteristic chromosomal aberrations have been associated with subtypes of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with distinct clinicopathologic features. Low-grade B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) form such a group and might be expected to be characterized by a specific cytogenetic abnormality. Metaphase analyses of MALT lymphoma are rare due to problems with fresh tissue collection and poor in vitro proliferation. However, the small number of published series suggests that chromosome trisomies, particularly trisomy 3, might be characteristic of these tumors. The application of interphase cytogenetic techniques to routinely processed material allows the examination of a large series of archival cases and is particularly useful for the demonstration of chromosome trisomies. We have used this technique to analyze 70 cases of low-grade MALT lymphoma from various sites and found trisomy 3 in 60%. This finding compares with 16% in low-grade nodal B-cell lymphoma and 27% in primary splenic lymphoma of marginal zone type (splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes). These results provide further evidence that low-grade MALT lymphomas from all sites form a single pathologic entity distinct from nodal B-cell lymphomas. Although MALT lymphoma and primary splenic lymphoma may arise from marginal zone B cells, they are genetically distinct.

The case of primary splenic lymphoma, the uncommon type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma presenting with prominent splenomegaly, is reported. The disease is characterized by long asymptomatic stage and splenic abscess found during splenectomy.

Primary Splenic Lymphoma (PSL) is a rare neoplasm of the spleen. PSL is generally presented as B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Primary involvement of the spleen by lymphoma is much less common than secondary involvement. It usually presents with nonspecific symptoms like left upper abdominal pain or discomfort due to splenomegaly, pyrexia, weight loss, night sweats and weakness. In this article, we are reporting a case of PSL in a 23 years old boy who presented with splenomegaly and non-specifc symptoms.Anwer Khan Modern Medical College Journal Vol. 9, No. 2: Jul 2018, P 152-153
