Non-Hodgkin lymphoma can rarely cause prostatic enlargement leading to urinary obstruction in young men. Chemotherapy is an effective treatment for this uncommon condition.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Urology

Background:

  • Genitourinary tract involvement by non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) affects 10% of patients.
  • Prostatic infiltration by NHL is rare, occurring in less than 0.1% of cases.

Observation:

  • A 41-year-old male presented with lower urinary tract outflow obstruction.
  • The obstruction was caused by prostatic enlargement secondary to Burkitt's lymphoma, a type of NHL.

Findings:

  • Chemotherapy resulted in positive outcomes for the patient.
  • The case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic considerations for prostatic NHL.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of prostatic enlargement causing lower urinary tract symptoms in young men.
