“…Thoracic aortic aneurysms associated with SLL have been previously described in the descending thoracic aorta. [1][2][3][4][5] To our knowledge, the association of a lymphoma with an ascending aortic aneurysm is novel. The extension of the aneurysm into the proximal aortic arch adds to the complexity of this case.…”

“…Lymphoma associated with an aneurysm of the thoracic aorta is a rare occurrence. Few cases have been described and locations of the aneurysm are primarily confined to the descending thoracic aorta [1][2][3][4][5] or the aortic arch. 6 Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) is a malignancy of B-lymphocytes that may present with constitutional symptoms and adenopathy.…”

Primary Lymphoma Presenting in an Ascending Aortic Aneurysm: A Case Report

2020

Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) is rarely associated with thoracic aortic aneurysms. Aneurysm of the ascending aorta associated with SLL has never been reported before. We describe the case of an asymptomatic 68-year-old woman who presented with a 5.5-cm aneurysm of the ascending aorta and no prior history of hematological disorders. Following excision and repair, the surgical specimen showed infiltration of the aortic wall by lymphocytes, expressing markers consistent with SLL. While symptomatic SLL carries a poor prognosis, risk stratification tools are applied to guide management strategies in asymptomatic patients.

“…En el abdomen se observan comúnmente grandes masas o linfadenopatías. El linfoma sisté-mico que compromete la pared aórtica se llama linfoma periaórtico (LP) y en la tomografía axial computada (TAC) puede ser confundido con un aneurisma de aorta torácica, disección o un hematoma intramural [4][5][6][7] . Es una entidad poco frecuente, la mayoría son LNH y cuando el LP se presenta, habitualmente lo hace sin linfadenopatías.…”

Systemic lymphoma that involves the aorta is called periaortic lymphoma, and may be misdiagnosed clinically or in CT scanE l linfoma no Hodgkin (LNH) habitualmente se presenta como una enfermedad sistémica, con linfadenopatías, fiebre y pérdida de peso. En el tórax puede presentarse con masas pulmonares o derrame pleural 1,2 . El compromiso extrapleural es raro 3 . En el abdomen se observan comúnmente grandes masas o linfadenopatías. El linfoma sisté-mico que compromete la pared aórtica se llama linfoma periaórtico (LP) y en la tomografía axial computada (TAC) puede ser confundido con un aneurisma de aorta torácica, disección o un hematoma intramural [4][5][6][7] . Es una entidad poco frecuente, la mayoría son LNH y cuando el LP se presenta, habitualmente lo hace sin linfadenopatías.Reportamos el primer caso de un linfoma periaórtico tóraco-abdominal que simula un sín-drome aórtico agudo (SAA).
