Secondary Breast, Pancreatic Involvement with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma/Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Case Report

Li Liu

Pancreatic infiltration with lymphoma/leukemic cells is a rare manifestation of ALL or NHL, especially for adults. Leukemia/lymphoma of the pancreas should be considered if there are multiple or diffusing pancreatic nodules on imaging findings and MRI possesses higher sensitivity than CT scan in identifying tumor lesions. Patients with ALL/NHL pancreas infiltration usually displayed unspecific symptoms. EUS-FNA is helpful to make the pathological diagnosis. FISH can better help in diagnosing and categorizing lymphoma.
