Primary Lymphoma of Bone

Abstract
Primary lymphoma of bone (PLB) is an uncommon neoplasm representing only 5% of all extranodal non-Hodgkin''s lymphomas (1). The precise role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning is unknown. A review of the literature and a recent case treated at the University of Alabama at Birmingham [Alabama, USA] in which MRI unveiled other foci of disease undetected by routine staging studies is presented.
