Abstract

Breast lymphomas are a rare sighting and image fi ndings are non -pathognomonic often mimicing different forms of invasive breast cancer. Nevertheless, multim odal imaging and subsequent histopathology are crucial for diagnosis and treatment. To draw attention to t his very rare entity, we present a case of a 74 year old female patient with a tumorous mass in the left m axillary sinus. The subsequent whole- body staging CT revealed an additional multicentric lesion of t he right breast suggesting breast cancer. Histopathology of both lesions resulted in the diagnosis of a d iffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
