Abstract:
Liver involvement in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is relatively frequent, being found in approximately half of the post-mortem studies. However, the clinical presentation of lymphoma mimicking primary liver disease is uncommon. A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (the recently described T-cell-rich B-cell lymphoma variant) is presented, where the initial and predominant manifestations were of hepatic origin, resembling non-neoplastic acute liver disease.
