Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Lymphoma recurrence can manifest as atypical presentations.
  • Computed Tomography (CT) is crucial for staging and detecting recurrence.
  • Pelvic masses require thorough differential diagnosis.

Observation:

  • A case of recurrent lymphoma was identified.
  • The presentation was a pelvic mass detected on CT.
  • Surgical intervention was performed.

Findings:

  • The pelvic mass was an ectopic spleen.
  • The ectopic spleen showed lymphomatous infiltration.
  • This highlights a rare cause of recurrent lymphoma presentation.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos

  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare differentials in lymphoma recurrence.
  • Radiological findings must be correlated with surgical and pathological data.
  • Ectopic spleen can be a site for lymphomatous involvement.
