Primary, Bilateral and Diffuse Renal Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in a Young Woman Suffering from Turner Syndrome

Abstract

Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) restricted to and primarily involving one or both kidneys, with no lymph node extension. It accounts for <1% of extranodal lymphomas, and descriptions in the literature are limited. Here, we describe an unprecedented case of bilateral PRL in a 44-year-old woman with Turner syndrome and discuss both diagnostic and therapeutic issues in the light of the available literature in the field. A personalized approach to this rare disease is necessary.
