Primary lymphoma of the temporal bone is an unusual finding in clinical practice and bilateral affection is even more rare. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of bilateral primary temporal bone lymphoma without middle ear involvement in the English medical literature so far. We report, for the first time, a case of primary lymphoma involving both temporal bones which presented with left-sided infranuclear facial palsy. A combination of contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) was used to characterize and to map the extent of the lesion, as well as to identify the exact site of facial nerve affection. An excision biopsy and immunohistochemistry revealed diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (DLBCL). Whole body fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography study (PET-CT) was performed to stage the disease. The patient was treated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy and is now on regular follow-up. The patient is alive and asymptomatic without disease progression for the last twenty months after initial diagnosis.

Primary lymphomas of the thyroid are rare tumours, representing less than 5% to 15% of thyroid cancers. These lymphomas develop on a pre-existing thyroid disease, notably Hashimoto's thyroiditis, or as a secondary site of a disseminated lymphoma. This pathology is aggressive and presents as a painful, rapidly evolving goitre with signs of compression. The most common histological types are non-Hodgkin's lymphoma type B. We report a case of thyroid non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the MALT type in a 71 year old woman with a specific history; the positive diagnosis was made thanks to a histological study of the surgical specimen completed by an immunohistochemical study on paraffin sections. The postoperative clinical course after six years was favourable, with no local recurrence or distant metastasis. Keywords: Goiter; Primary Lymphoma; Thyroid; MALT; Immunohistochemistry

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of B-cell type is the second most common neoplasm after Kaposi's sarcoma, among patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Most non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cases that are associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome involve extranodal sites, especially the digestive tract and the central nervous system. We report a case of primary lymphoma of the duodenum in a patient with AIDS. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed pseudopolypoid masses found in the second portion of the duodenum. A complete diagnostic study including histological, immunohistochemical and virological analyses showed high-grade B-cell Burkitt's lymphoma. The Epstein-Barr virus genome was detected in biopsies by immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization.

Lymphoma is a blood cancer that begins in different types of lymphoid or histiocytic cells in various states of maturity. Primary lymphoma of bone is rare, and clinical manifestations include localized pain and edema. The diagnosis takes into consideration the clinical picture, imaging tests and pathological anatomy. In this article, we present the case of a patient with restricted daily activities and loss of quality of life due to primary non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the talus. After chemotherapy, the clinical condition of the patient improved. Level of Evidence V; Expert Opinion.

Although the most common site in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) is the Waldeyer’s ring, the involvement of the tongue is extremely rare. The present study revealed a 70-year-old female with primary non‑Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) of the base of the tongue with the chief complaint of sore throat and dysphasia as a rare case report. The patient was expired 3 months after diagnosis because of the advanced stage of the disease and poor physical statue. The diagnosis was confirmed as primary NHL diffuse large B cell type by histopathological and immunohistochemistry results

Primary Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma of Testis is a rare and unique tumor. It is more common than primary testicular tumors in males above 50 years. It often shows bilaterality and systemic spread, particularly to central nervous system. Due to its rarity and aggressive nature, opinion regarding its treatment regime is rather divided and its prognosis is poor. Here we present a case of 60 year old male with rapid enlargement of right testis with no extra-testicular manifestation of lymphoma at the time of presentation. Keywords: Primary non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma of Testis; Primary Testicular Lymphoma; Diffuse Large-cell Lymphoma of Testis.
