“…A few papers described skin and subcutaneous tissue imaging characteristics involved in hematologic neoplasms. In the study by Lee et al, CT and MRI findings of superficial soft tissue lymphomas were non‐specific 9 . To our knowledge, no systematic review has been done for ultrasound findings of skin and subcutaneous tissue involvement in hematologic neoplasms.…”

“…In the study by Lee et al, CT and MRI findings of superficial soft tissue lymphomas were non‐specific. 9 To our knowledge, no systematic review has been done for ultrasound findings of skin and subcutaneous tissue involvement in hematologic neoplasms. With high accessibility and excellent spatial resolution, ultrasound has become an ideal modality for examining skin, and subcutaneous tissue.…”

Objectives: To evaluate the sonographic features of secondary involvement of skin and subcutaneous tissues by hematologic malignancies.Methods: A review of the ultrasound and pathology databases yielded 10 cases with 13 skin and subcutaneous tissue lesions secondary to hematologic neoplasms, which were confirmed by pathology. We used ultrasound to assess the number, location, size, depth of involvement, echogenicity, and vascularity of the lesions. Results:The study involved five male and five female patients, including four leukemia, two multiple myeloma, and four lymphoma patients. The average age was 45 years (17-66 years). Three patients presented with one lesion, four with two

“…Primary extranodal lymphoma is commonly known to manifest in a variety of tissues, such as the gastrointestinal tract [ 1 ], central nervous system [ 2 ], skin [ 3 ], bone [ 4 ] and the respiratory system [ 5 ]; however, primary appendicular soft tissue manifestation of lymphoma (ASTL) is rare. Merely eight out of 7000 patients (0.1% of patients) with malignant lymphoma have been reported to present with soft tissue manifestation of the extremities [ 6 ].…”

Clinical Presentation and MRI Characteristics of Appendicular Soft Tissue Lymphoma: A Systematic Review

et al. 2022

Appendicular soft tissue lymphoma (ASTL) is rare and is frequently misinterpreted as soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Studies investigating magnet resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of ASTL are scarce and showed heterogenous investigation criteria and results. The purpose of this study was to systematically review clinical presentations and MRI characteristics of ASTL as described in the current literature. For that purpose, we performed a systematic literature review in compliance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Patient demographics, clinical presentation and MRI imaging characteristics of ASTL were investigated, resulting in a total of nine included studies reporting a total of 77 patients. Signal intensity of lymphoma compared to muscle tissue was mostly described as isointense (53%) or slightly hyperintense (39%) in T1-weighted images and always as hyperintense in proton-and T2-weighted images. Multicompartmental involvement was reported in 59% of cases and subcutaneous stranding in 74%. Long segmental involvement was present in 80% of investigated cases. Involvement of neurovascular structures was reported in 41% of cases and the presence of traversing vessels in 83% of patients. The presence of these findings should lead to the inclusion of ASTL in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue masses.
