Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Presenting as Peritoneal Lymphomatosis: A Case Report and Literature Review

Peritoneal lymphomatosis (PL) is a rare presentation of malignant lymphoma cases, many of which are diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and characterized by aggressive clinical courses. We herein report a 63-year-old woman presenting with the rapid development of abdominal distention...

description Peritoneal lymphomatosis (PL) is a rare presentation of malignant lymphoma cases, many of which are diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and characterized by aggressive clinical courses. We herein report a 63-year-old woman presenting with the rapid development of abdominal distention due to bulky peritoneal tumors. The pathological evaluation of a needle biopsy sample, combined with flow cytometry, yielded the diagnosis of DLBCL. Prompt chemotherapeutic intervention resulted in favorable disease control and sustained complete remission. It is necessary to diagnose cases of DLBCL presenting as PL early to ensure prompt treatment and prevent mortality.
