“…Most of the masses were round or oval and had well-defined margins. This finding agrees with data presented in previous reports [1,7,[11][12][13][14]. There was no significant difference in shape and margin characteristics of lesions between the PBL and SBL groups.…”

“…Some authors regard bilateral involvement as a possible specific feature of BL in contrast to breast cancer [11]. However, in the study of Liu and Clark [12] there were no instances of bilaterality. Most series documented that lymphomas tend to involve the right breast [1,2,[25][26][27][28][29].…”

“…Only a few of the published studies focus on the radiological features of BL, and conflicting findings of BL have been reported [1,7,[11][12][13]. Only in one investigation has the distinction between primary and secondary breast involvement been taken into consideration [1].…”

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, clinical signs and radiological features of breast lymphoma. Methods: This is a retrospective review of 36 patients with breast lymphoma (22 primary and 14 secondary). 35 patients were female and 1 was male; their median age was 65 years (range 24-88 years). In all patients, the diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically. Results: The prevalence of breast lymphoma was 1.6% of all identified cases with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 0.5% of cases with breast cancer. B-cell lymphoma was found in 94% and T-cell lymphoma in 6%. 96 lesions were identified (2.7 per patient). The mean size was 15.8¡8.3 mm. The number of intramammary lesions was higher in secondary than in primary lymphoma. The size of the identified intramammary lesions was larger in primary than in secondary lymphoma. Clinically, 86% of the patients presented with solitary or multiple breast lumps. In 14%, breast involvement was diagnosed incidentally during staging examinations. Conclusion: On mammography, intramammary masses were the most commonly seen (27 patients, 82%). Architectural distortion occurred in three patients (9%). In three patients (9%), no abnormalities were found on mammography. On ultrasound, the identified lesions were homogeneously hypoechoic or heterogeneously mixed hypo-to hyperechoic. On MRI, the morphology of the lesions was variable. After intravenous administration of contrast medium, a marked inhomogeneous contrast enhancement was seen in most cases. On CT, most lesions presented as circumscribed round or oval masses with moderate or high enhancement.

In addition, immunostains for B-and T-cell markers were performed in 12 cases (cases 11,12,14,19,21,26,27,30,32,37,43, and 45) not originally immunophenotyped and for which paraffin tissue blocks were available. The results of flow cytometric analysis performed on 4 cases (cases 11, 20, 29, and 40) were also reviewed.…”

“…Dixon y cols. describen al tamaño tumoral como un factor pronóstico importante (14), mientras que Liu y Clark no correlacionan el pronóstico al tamaño sino al compromiso axilar (15). La sobrevida varía dependiendo del estadio clínico y del tipo histológico (difícil medir por la diversidad de las clasificaciones de linfomas).…”
