    A 65-year-old man with prior tonsil lymphoma treatment presented with urinary issues. Unexpectedly, prostate surgery revealed the "adenoma" was actually a recurrence of follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Urology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • A 65-year-old male patient with a history of malignant lymphoma of the tonsils, treated with 60Co radiotherapy two years prior.
    • Patient presented with symptoms of dysuria, indicative of a potential lower urinary tract issue.

    Observation:

    • Initial clinical examinations, including prostate palpation, retrograde urethrogram, and urethroscopy, suggested benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH).
    • Surgical intervention via retropubic prostatectomy was performed, with approximately 18g of tissue resected, presumed to be benign prostatic adenoma.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological examination of the resected prostate tissue revealed the "adenoma" to be a malignant lymphoma.
    • The specific type was identified as follicular lymphoma, medium-sized cell type, according to the Lymphoma Study Group (LSG) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma classification.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering extranodal lymphoma recurrence, even when initial symptoms and diagnostic findings mimic benign conditions like BPH.
    • Accurate histological diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment planning, which in this case involved subsequent systemic chemotherapy.
    • The findings underscore the potential for late recurrence of lymphoma in unusual locations following initial radiotherapy.
