Abstract

Primary lung lymphomas represent less than 1% of all non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and most of these are MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue) lymphomas that originate from bronchial mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. In this report, we presented two cases of primary lung MALT lymphoma whose diagnoses were made by bronchospy and histopathological examination. Initial diagnoses were postobstructive pneumonia unresponsive to antibiotherapy in one patient, and lung carcinoma with persistent cough in the other.

Özet

Tüm Hodgkin dışı lenfomaların %1'inden azını akciğer kökenli lenfomalar oluşturur. Bunların büyük bir kısmı bronş mukozasıyla ilişkili lenfoid dokudan kaynaklanan MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue) lenfomalardır. Bu yazıda primer akciğer MALT lenfoması saptanan iki olgu sunuldu. Tanı iki olguda da bronkoskopik inceleme ve biyopsi ile kondu. Bir olguda antibiyoterapiye rağmen düzelmeyen postobstrüktif pnömoni, diğerinde ise geçmeyen öksürük nedeniyle akciğer tümörü düşünülmekteydi.
