Abstract
Chest wall lymphoma is a rare entity and often confused with the more common sarcoma. We report a case of diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient presented with a sole chest wall mass. Chest computed tomography revealed an abnormal mass with well-defined borders below the pectoralis major muscle with contrast enhancement. The excisional biopsy revealed diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The patient was then treated with six cycles of R-CHOP and achieved complete response. She is currently free from malignancy for 12 months after treatment. This paper illustrates the rarity of this entity, the need for distinguishing it from sarcoma, and briefly reviews its current management.
