Non–Hodgkin’s Lymphoma of the Appendix

Abstract Infiltration of the appendix as a manifestation of non-hodgkins lymphoma (NHL) at diagnosis or at relapse is a rare finding. We report the history of a patient with gastrointestinal non-hodgkin's lymphoma treated 8 years earlier who presented with symptoms suggestive of acute appendicitis secondary to relapsed NHL.
