An Unusual Case of Primary Bilateral Renal Lymphoma: A Case (original) (raw)

Bilateral Primary Renal Lymphoma Presenting with Acute Renal Failure

Journal of Urological Surgery

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a multisystem disease presenting with painless lymph node involvement in patients between 40 and 70 years of age. Kidney failure can be seen in about 10% of lymphoma patients due to different reasons. However, renal failure caused by lymphomatous parenchymal infiltration of the kidneys is very rare. In this study, we present a case of bilateral primary renal lymphoma presenting with acute renal failure.

Primary renal non-Hodgkins lymphoma presenting with acute renal failure

Journal of the National Medical Association, 2003

Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) has been reported in medical literature. Its occurrence is rare and controversial, the kidney being an extranodal organ. We report a case of primary renal lymphoma presenting with acute-on-chronic renal failure and unilateral involvement of the left kidney without obstruction and with minimal peripheral organ involvement. Definitive diagnosis was made from histologic examination of the mass postoperatively. Renal function became stabilized after the removal of the tumor.

A CASE REPORT OF PRIMARY RENAL LYMPHOMA

2017

Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is defined as a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma arising primarily in the renal parenchyma, not resulting from invasion of an adjacent node or lymphomatous mass. It is much more common for kidneys to be an involved extra-nodal organ site in other lymphomas; perhaps just 3 to 8 percent of the time that the kidney is involved in lymphomas, it is a PRL. In lymphoma circles, PRL is considered a controversial disease, meaning that not everyone agrees that it exists, since the kidneys are not lymphoid organs. We present a case of 56 years old male patient who presented with bilateral multiple renal masses and was diagnosed to have primary renal lymphoma.

Primary Renal Lymphoma- A Case Report

2008

Primary renal Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is rare. Renal involvement though common in disseminated Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), the incidence of extra nodal primary renal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is less than 1%. An elderly, immunocompetant, chronic alcoholic male symptomatic since one month was presented with acute abdominal pain with fever and acute renal failure. The provisional diagnosis both clinically and radiologically was liver abscesses with enlarged bright kidneys. On the complete autopsy examination, diagnosis of primary renal lymphoma with liver metastasis was made. Also an incidental finding of microfilariae of Wuchereria bancrofti was noted.

Primary lymphoma of the kidney

Saudi Medical Journal

Histopathological and immunohistochemical slides were reviewed, and additional immunohistochemistry stains were carried out in selected cases. Follow-up data were also collected. Original Article Results: There were 17 identified cases of PRL. The age of the patients ranged from 4-76 years)median: 50.5 years and mean: 46.8 years(, 11)64.7%(were males, and 6)35.3%(were females. There were 12 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, 3 cases of Burkitt's lymphoma, and 2 cases of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder. The median follow-up duration was 22 months. The one-year overall survival rate was 71% and the 2-year overall survival rate was 43% during follow-up. Conclusion: Primary renal lymphomas in Saudi patients are more common in males and seen in a relatively younger age group compared to the available worldwide data. The diagnosis of PRL is important to avoid tumor dissemination and unnecessary nephrectomy. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common pathological type and non-germinal center B-cell is the most common subtype.

A Rare Presentation of Primary Renal Lymphoma Simulating Renal Cell Carcinoma

Primary renal lymphoma is very rare disease which is mimicking renal cell carcinoma. In the present study, a 64 year old female patient presented with right renal mass clinically diagnosed as a renal cell carcinoma. Right radical nephrectomy was done, sent for histopathological examination and diagnosed as a Primary renal lymphoma.

Imaging features of primary renal lymphoma

Acta Radiologica, 2017

Background Cases of primary renal lymphoma (PRL) are quite rare and are often mistaken for renal cell carcinoma. Purpose To determine the multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of PRL. Materials and Methods Twenty-three patients with PRL were identified by CT and MRI, and their tumor characteristics were assessed. Results Tumors exhibited single or multifocal nodules (n = 19) and diffuse renal enlargement (n = 4). Twenty-two tumors exhibited an infiltrative appearance. There was no evidence of calcification in any of the cases. Twenty-one tumors displaced or wrapped around abdominal vessels rather than encasing them. Enlarged retroperitoneal nodes were observed in three cases. Neither extension into the venous system nor distant metastasis was found. Tumor enhancement was of low attenuation compared with that of normal renal cortex and medulla ( P
