Area of Science:

Hematology
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Primary splenic lymphomas (PSL) are rare splenic neoplasms.
The spleen, a secondary lymphoid organ, is typically involved by lymphoma systemically.
Rarely, the spleen can be the exclusive site of lymphoma.

Observation:

An elderly female patient presented with splenomegaly.
Diagnostic evaluation revealed a splenic tumor.
Splenectomy was performed for diagnosis and treatment.

Findings:

Histopathological examination confirmed primary splenic lymphoma.
The lymphoma was confined to the spleen.

Implications:

This case underscores the importance of considering PSL in the differential diagnosis of isolated splenomegaly.
Highlights the diagnostic and management approach for primary splenic lymphoma.
Contributes to understanding rare splenic neoplasms.
