A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) involving the prostate and the urinary bladder in a 24-year-old male is reported. Although none of the currently available imaging modalities is specific for the diagnosis of NHL of the prostate, this diagnosis must be considered because of its amenability to treatment. The heterogeneity of the mass at CT and MRI might be suggestive of high-grade NHL. The patient was treated with intensive combination chemotherapy.

Background: This 38-year-old female patient presented at the emergency department with subacute low abdominal pain for 3 days. There was little abdominal tenderness, but no signs of peritonitis. Her blood results showed little inflammation with mild leukocytosis 13.0 (3.5-11.0 x 10*3/μL) and mild CRP elevation 44 (< 5 mg/L). The patient had a CT scan of the abdomen on the same day. The day after, a colonoscopy was performed which was perfectly normal. Because the discrepancy between the findings on CT scan, biochemistry and colonoscopy, the patient underwent an explorative laparoscopy, which showed a normal colon. Two days after the initial CT scan, a control CT scan was performed.
