Abstract. Composite lymphoma is the presence of different
morphological types of lymphoma in a single lymph node at the time
of clinical presentation. It is a rare type of lymphoid neoplasm, present
in lymphoid tissue. This paper is presenting four rare cases of
composite lymphoma identified in our clinical practice. Three of the
cases were female: one with inguinal mass, second with cervical
lymph nodes enlargement, and the third with enlarged tonsils. The
fourth case was a male presented with enlarged tonsils. The patients'
ages ranged between 40-54 years. Histopathological examinations and
immunohistochemistry features proved the diagnosis of composite
lymphoma. Two of the cases presented with a rare association of
Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma The third case represents
two different types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and the fourth case
represents a rare association of high grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
and low grade follicular center cell lymphoma. The authors discuss, in
detail, these four cases and review the literature of similar association. |
