Abstract:
Renal lymphoma is usually clinically silent and occurs late in the disease, after the diagnosis of generalized lymphoma has been established. Rarely, however, renal disease may be the earliest manifestation. Herein we report a case of malignant lymphoma involving kidney in a 41-year-old male who underwent radical nephrectomy because of a presumptive diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma.
