    Area of Science:

    • Hematology
    • Oncology
    • Nuclear Medicine

    Background:

    • Extensive bone marrow necrosis is an uncommon autopsy finding.
    • Lymphocytic lymphoma can present with pancytopenia and bone marrow necrosis.

    Observation:

    • A patient with poorly differentiated lymphocytic lymphoma presented with pancytopenia and bone marrow necrosis.
    • Bone marrow scintigraphy using 99mTc-sulfur-minicolloid was utilized.

    Findings:

    • Bone marrow scanning noninvasively assessed the extent of marrow damage.
    • The patient's condition showed clinical improvement after cytotoxic chemotherapy.

    Implications:

    • Bone marrow necrosis associated with lymphoma may be a treatable condition.
    • Nuclear medicine imaging can evaluate the extent of bone marrow damage.
    • This finding highlights the importance of considering treatable underlying diseases in cases of bone marrow necrosis.
