The incidence of Addison’s disease (AD) is rare. One of the most common causes of AD in developed countries is autoimmune. On the other hand, in developing countries, infective causes still predominate. The symptoms are mostly insidious in onset and non-specific, making it challenging to diagnose AD. The delay in starting the right treatment predisposes to high mortality due to Addison’s crisis. Hence, biochemical parameters play a vital role in diagnosing AD since they usually will present with prominent hyponatraemia, hyperkalaemia and hypoglycaemia. Here, we report a case of a 66-year-old man with multiple co-morbidities and disseminated histoplasmosis who presented with asymptomatic hyponatraemia and hyperkalaemia and was eventually diagnosed with Addison’s disease. Although the non-specific symptoms from his multiple co-morbidities obscured the diagnosis of AD, comprehensive biochemical tests have helped in establishing the diagnosis.

Discordant lymphoma (DL) is the coexistence of two or more distinct subtypes in separate anatomic sites. There are limited reports on DL cases especially involving more than two subtypes in more than two sites. We report a 76-year-old man who presented with constitutional symptoms, flank mass and painless lymphadenopathies for six months. Laboratory tests revealed moderate anaemia, markedly elevated serum IgM (13400 mg/dL), IgM Lambda paraproteinemia and Lambda light chain paraproteinuria with unmeasurable serum lactate dehydrogenase due to hyperviscous sample. CT scan showed multiple subcutaneous masses over chest wall and retroperitoneum, with lytic bone lesions, and hepatosplenomegaly. Further biopsy findings with morphological, immunohistochemical and molecular analysis of the tissue sections revealed diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma in the chest wall mass, follicular lymphoma in the inguinal lymph node and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma in the bone marrow. This case highlights the rare DL. The importance of histopathological evaluation of lymphoma despite the availability of PET-CT scans for disease staging is undeniable.
