Bilateral Primary Pleural Lymphoma: A Case Report

Primary pleural lymphoma is a very rare entity and usually caused by either HIV or pyothorax. In this case report, we describe a 72-year-old who was presented with a history of chronic cough and weight loss with a CT chest finding of bilateral pleural effusion, and who underwent thoracocentesis and cytology that showed large B cell lymphoma. The case report underscores this rare location of primary lymphoma with an aim to raise the awareness of physicians. .

Abstract

Primary pleural lymphoma is a very rare entity and usually caused by either HIV or pyothorax. In this case report, we describe a 72-year-old who was presented with a history of chronic cough and weight loss with a CT chest finding of bilateral pleural effusion, and who underwent thoracocentesis and cytology that showed large B cell lymphoma. The case report underscores this rare location of primary lymphoma with an aim to raise the awareness of physicians. .
