Primary large cell lymphoma presenting as hilar mass and obstructive jaundice. 1998

M Al-Fadda, and B M Fashir

Department of Medicine, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

We report the case of a 65-year-old patient who was diagnosed with large-cell lymphoma arising and remaining localized in the porta hepatis, causing obstructive jaundice, and resulting into ascending cholangitis, septicemia, and acute renal failure. We discuss how jaundice can be a manifestation of both Hodgkins and non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

D017728	Lymphoma, Large-Cell, Anaplastic	A systemic, large-cell, non-Hodgkin, malignant lymphoma characterized by cells with pleomorphic appearance and expressing the CD30 ANTIGEN.
