  • Title: Arthritis as a presenting feature of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
    Author: Falcini F, Bardare M, Cimaz R, Lippi A, Corona F.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1998 Apr; 78(4):367-70. PubMed ID: 9623403.
    Abstract:
    Leukaemia can present with joint swelling in the absence of abnormal haematological findings. Arthritis as a presenting sign of lymphoma, however, is extremely rare. Three children with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who had joint swelling at the onset of their disease are reported. Two cases showed histological features of anaplastic large cell lymphoma (Ki-1/CD30 positive), and one of angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma. In all patients the unusual presentation delayed correct diagnosis.
