Abstract

Primary hepatic lymphoma (PHL) is an uncommon lymphoid tumor with varied clinical features and treatment outcome. In the present study, the case of a 56‑year‑old patient with PHL and no clinical presentation was reported. During a routine physical examination, multiple hypodense nodules were incidentally detected in right lobes of the liver and hepatic portal in an abdominal computed tomography scan. A liver biopsy revealed the presence of a non‑Hodgkin's lymphoma diffuse large B cell type that was CD20‑positive, followed by the diagnosis of a PHL. The patient was treated with R‑CHOP, radiotherapy and R‑Hyper‑CVAD/R‑HD MTX‑ara‑C, and complete remission was achieved.
