A RARE CASE OF CONCURRENT PRIMARY GASTRIC AND BONE DIFFUSE LARGE B CELL LYMPHOMA.

Primary bone lymphoma (PBL) is an uncommon clinical entity and a rare non-Hodgkin's lymphoma presentation. PBL accounts for less than 5% of malignant bone tumours. Gastric lymphoma (PGL) is also rare cancer, but it is the most common site for extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We report a rare case of concurrent occurrence of bone lymphoma and gastric lymphoma. The patient presented with a slow-growing swelling around the knee joint for two years. Positron emission tomography incidentally picked up an FDG avid lesion in the fundus of the stomach. Tissue specimens of both the lesions were obtained and conformed to have diffuse large B cell lymphoma on histology and immunochemistry. He is on follow up with the oncology department and being treated with an R-CHOP regimen (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin (vincristine), and prednisone.

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the predominant site of extra nodal lymphoma involvement. In the United States (US), gastric lymphoma is the most common extra nodal site of lymphoma. Most of these lesions are either extra nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type or diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We report a case of diffuse large B-Cell Gastric Lymphoma who initially presented with sore throat, dysphagia and hiccups for a few months. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed lower esophageal stenosis and a large, infiltrative, ulcerated, circumferential mass at the gastro esophageal junction and cardia. Histopathology showed diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Positron emission tomography scan showed advanced disease with presence of lymph nodes on both sides of the diaphragm. The patient was considered to have Stage IV gastric lymphoma. Subsequently, he was treated with R-CHOP regimen (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin (vincristine), and prednisone).

Primary lymphoma of the ovary, particularly in an HIV-positive woman, is exceptionally rare, and ovarian lymphoma may not be considered at the time of intraoperative consultation. In this article, we present a case in an HIV-positive woman thought to be a dysgerminoma at the time of frozen section, but which was found to be a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the ovary.
