Rare and Controversial Entity of Malignant Genitourinary Tract Tumor: Unilateral Primary Renal Lymphoma of Left Kidney.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Extra nodal lymphoma involves various organs. Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a very rare entity. Most of the PRL are diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Pathogenesis of PRL remains controversial. It is essential to diagnose PRL, by exclusion of systemic involvement. We report a case of 60 years old lady who presented with flank pain and mass without hematuria. Histology confirmed the diagnosis of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell type. Though the prognosis of PRL is very poor but early diagnosis, surgical resection with chemotherapy does improve the survival of patient.
