Abstract
Edema with ulceration is one of the common presentation encountered in the clinical setting. The main aim is to identify
the cause of edema with ulceration and treat the underlying cause. The edema and ulceration can be unilateral or
bilateral. The main cause of unilateral leg edema with ulceration is mainly due to venous insufficiency (deep vein
thrombosis) and rarely because of tumor. Presence of unilateral limb edema with ulceration but without inguinal
lymphadenopathy is extremely rare. In this paper, we are reporting a very rare case of Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) of
lower limb with ulceration but no lymphadenopathy1, 2
