Primary lymphoma of the breast: A case series.

Primary breast lymphoma has been defined as localized involvement of one or both breasts with or without ipsilateral axillary nodal involvement, usually as a rare manifestation of extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We describe three cases of this uncommon disease seen at our institution. Two of these cases presented as palpable breast lumps and one was screening detected. None of the patients had a prior history of lymphoma; only one reported B symptoms night sweats and weight loss. Diagnosis was established on ultrasound-guided core biopsy and no evidence of metastatic disease was identified. Even though the imaging features are not specific to this diagnosis, the radiologists should be aware of the clinical and imaging presentation of this rare malignancy to recommend appropriate management and establish radiologic-pathologic concordance.
