ABSTRACT
Lymphoma is the most frequent hematologic malignancy that involves the breast. It represents less than 1% of all breast cancer. The most common subtype is the secondary B-cell lymphoma. Clinically, lymphomas are divided into primary and secondary breast lymphoma. We presented a case of 49-year-old female, who has diagnosed of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, finalizing the treatment 2 months ago. Currently, she came for a check-up due to a palpable lump in the right breast. Mammography shows a dense, oval, and circumscribed mass. Ultrasound revealed a 3.6 cm oval, hypoechoic, lobulated mass with internal vascularity at color Doppler. Axillary nodes show cortical thickening of 7 mm, cortical blood flood, and absence of fatty hilum. The histopathology report corresponds to infiltration of the right breast and bilateral axillary nodes by Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. This case corresponds with lymphoma recurrence manifested in breast. The diagnosis of lymphoma is an imaging challenge that simulates benign and malignant pathologies.
