Journal Title: JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL VENTILATION AND PULMONOLOGY - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 31
Abstract
We report the medical observation of an 84-year-old patient with pleural lymphoma B developed on sequelae of pneumothorax therapeutic tuberculosis in 1949. This is a case of large EBV +, CD20 +, CD 79 A +, CD2 +, CD3 + lymphoma B (aberrant T markers). The patient was treated with chemotherapy which resulted in his death, 7 months after the start of treatment. Pneumothorax-associated lymphoma is a rare condition and will disappear with the aging of the last patients treated with this technique.
