Abstract

Mammary non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are uncommon and account for 2% of all extranodal lymphomas. Stringent diagnostic criteria are applied in the diagnosis of primary lymphoma considering that the breast is a recognized site for disseminated extranodal lymphoma. Our case report was established by histology alone.

Keywords

Mammary non-Hodgkin's lymphomas; Breast
