Abstract
Described for the first time in 1959, Primary non-Hodgkin´s lymphoma of the breast is a rare clinical entity which clinical presentation and radiological description is not different from other breast malignancies. Due to the rarity of cases and the few cases reported in studies, the management has still no clear guidelines. The management and outcome of primary breast lymphoma and carcinoma are totally different. Early and prompt diagnosis of primary breast lymphoma is important to avoid unnecessary mastectomies. We are reporting a case of a nulliparous patient aged of 30 with family history of colon cancer who consulted first for the management of a pelvic mass and the exam revealed a breast mass, which was diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell Lymphoma. No diagnosis could be found for the ovarian tumor as the patient passed away under investigation.
