Sumario:Primary hepatic lymphoma (PHL) is an uncommon lymphoid tumor with varied clinical features and treatment outcome. In the present study, the case of a 56-year-old patient with PHL and no clinical presentation was reported. During a routine physical examination, multiple hypodense nodules were incidentally detected in right lobes of the liver and hepatic portal in an abdominal computed tomography scan. A liver biopsy revealed the presence of a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma diffuse large B cell type that was CD20-positive, followed by the diagnosis of a PHL. The patient was treated with R-CHOP, radiotherapy and R-Hyper-CVAD/R-HD MTX-ara-C, and complete remission was achieved.
