Abstract

Splenic marginal zone lymphomas (SMZL) constitute about 20% of primary splenic NHLs. We report a case of primary SMZL with a florid granulomatous reaction which obscured the underlying lymphoma. Although granulomas have been described in splenic non-Hodgkin lymphoma, it can be extensive and mask the underlying lymphoma. A careful search for the cytoarchitectural features of SMZL is warranted in such a case.
