Tonsillar malignancy is the underlying etiology of only a very small percentage of paediatric unilateral tonsillar enlargements. Further, because of rarity of tonsillar malignancy in children, the diagnosis may be delayed. Authors describe a large bleeding tonsillar mass in a child who remained undiagnosed for two months but finally diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma at the institution.

Primary B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma of Breast is a rare presentation of breast malignancy and it is necessary to differentiate it from secondary breast lymphoma as prognosis and treatment varies based on the diagnosis. We report a case of 47-year-old female with bilateral PBNHL of Breast which is rare due to younger age of presentation than earlier reported cases of this malignancy, lump with “peau de orange” appearance seen in both the breasts which is usually seen with high grade lymphoma and complete recovery of the patient while bilateral PBL outlines poor prognosis. Mammosonography findings included dilated ducts with hypoechoiec areas. MRI showed altered signal intensity. Findings of the imaging studies are non-specific and vary widely from case to case which is why biopsy which is gold standard was done to confirm the diagnosis

We present a case of 47-year-old female with bilateral PBNHL of Breast which is rare due to younger age of presentation than earlier reported cases of this malignancy, lump with “peau de orange” appearance seen in both the breasts which is usually seen with high grade lymphoma and complete recovery of the patient while bilateral PBL outlines poor prognosis. Mammosonography findings included dilated ducts with hypoechoiec areas. MRI showed altered signal intensity. Findings of the imaging studies are non-specific and vary widely from case to case which is why biopsy which is gold standard was done to confirm the diagnosis.

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a cancer of the immune system, and accounts for 90% of all lymphomas. When lymphoma is discovered outside of the immune system, it is considered extranodal lymphoma. Any organ can be the primary site of NHL, with the gastrointestinal tract being the most common site of involvement. This case study explores the sonographic discovery of an uncommon presentation of NHL with an extranodal mass originating from the pancreatic body and tail, and further extending into the splenic hilum.
