Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma affecting the airways is rare. Endoscopic examination is crucial for diagnosing bronchial lymphoma in patients with suggestive clinical signs.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pulmonology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) can rarely involve the respiratory tract.
  • Endobronchial or bronchial-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) lymphoma represents an extremely uncommon manifestation of NHL.

Observation:

  • This report details two cases of endobronchial/BALT lymphoma.
  • These cases highlight the rarity and potential underestimation of this condition.

Findings:

  • The presented cases underscore the diagnostic challenge posed by endobronchial NHL.
  • Early identification relies on recognizing subtle clinical indicators of bronchial involvement.

Implications:

  • Clinicians should consider endoscopic evaluation for patients with lymphoma and symptoms suggestive of bronchial disease.
