Abstract

Primary thyroid lymphoma is a rare malignancy, accounting for 1–2% of extra-nodal lymphomas and 1–5% of thyroid malignancies. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common type of primary thyroid lymphoma. It usually presents with a rapidly enlarging neck mass with cervical lymphadenopathy. Though rare, early diagnosis of this condition is important because its management is quite different from the treatment of other thyroid neoplasms. It is usually treated by chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy. We present the case of a 43 years old male who presented with thyroid swelling which on histopathology and subsequent immunohistochemistry was confirmed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the thyroid.
