Thoracic Involvement in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
摘要：
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is known to involve multiple intra- and extrathoracic sites. Radiologic evidence of thoracic disease occurs in 45–48% of patients with NHL (Castellino et al. 1996; Romano and Libshitz 1998); the frequency at autopsy is 73% (Vieta and Craver 1941). Although the most common manifestation of thoracic lymphoma is intrathoracic nodal involvement, it can occur at multiple extranodal sites, including the thymus, thyroid, pulmonary parenchyma, pleura, pericardium, heart, chest wall, and breast. This chapter will review the various extranodal sites of thoracic involvement by NHL; the patterns of disease presentation; and the imaging evaluation at presentation, and in follow-up; as well as some points about recurrence.
