  • Title: Primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue-type lymphoma arising in the kidney.
    Author: Kato Y, Hasegawa M, Numasato S, Monma N, Fujioka T.
    Journal: Int J Urol; 2008 Jan; 15(1):90-2. PubMed ID: 18184182.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of primary low-grade lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) arising from the kidney in a 30-year-old man with an abdominal mass in the right flank detected by ultrasonography. Radical nephrectomy was performed under a preliminary diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. The final histological diagnosis was MALT-type lymphoma. To the best of our knowledge, only five reports of primary MALT-type lymphoma in the kidney have been published in the literature so far. All cases were surgically treated and only one case went on to chemotherapy postoperatively.
