“…It has been suggested that patients diagnosed with pulmonary MALT lymphoma should be evaluated for the presence of underlying autoimmune disorders and or infectious processes [9-10]. MALT lymphoma is also associated with localized deposits of amyloid within the tumor [11-12]. However, MALT lymphoma is not known to be associated with systemic amyloidosis and screening of such patients for systemic amyloidosis is not recommended.…”

Pulmonary nodules have a broad differential diagnosis with primary lung cancer, lung metastases, benign tumors, carcinoid tumors, and infectious granulomas as their common cause. While relatively rare, pulmonary lymphoproliferative disorders such as primary pulmonary lymphomas, primary pulmonary plasmacytomas, secondary lymphomas involving the lung, multiple myeloma involving the lung, leukemias involving the lung should be considered in these patients presenting with lung nodules. Primary pulmonary non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) is an extremely rare lung tumor accounting for 0.4% of all lymphomas. Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma accounts for about 70%-90% of all primary pulmonary lymphomas, constituting less than 0.5% of all the lung neoplasms. Though it usually remains localized, it is a clonal B-cell neoplasm with a potential for systematic spread and transformation to an aggressive B-cell lymphoma. We hereby discuss the case of a 66-year-old woman with primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma.

Pulmonary amyloidosis is a rare disease that incorporates deposition of amyloid microfibril material in the lung parenchyma. The condition generally presents as an indolent subacute-to-chronic pulmonary disease and requires tissue biopsy to establish the diagnosis. Nodular pulmonary amyloidosis, a subtype of pulmonary amyloidosis, is characterised by special radiographic and pathological features. While the disease can be associated with inflammatory conditions; its association with mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is unusual and carries management challenges. Herein, we illustrate a case study of nodular pulmonary amyloidosis associated with underlying MALT lymphoma in a patient with known systemic lupus erythematosus. The aim of this article is to share the management experience of this complex condition with the medical community and to conduct an up-to-date literature review on nodular pulmonary amyloidosis.
