  • Title: Chest wall abscess: an unusual presentation of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
    Author: Khalbuss WE, Grigorian S, Mignone J, D'Agostino HJ.
    Journal: Diagn Cytopathol; 2005 Jul; 33(1):33-5. PubMed ID: 15945090.
    Abstract:
    A chest wall abscess is a very rare presentation of extranodal Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL); only one case has been reported to date. Here, we describe a case of a 38-yr-old man with HL whose initial presentation was a chest wall abscess. The diagnosis of HL was suggested by cytological examination of the purulent discharge and was confirmed subsequently by excisional biopsy of cervical lymph node.
