Abstract
Consecutive cases [27] of pulmonary involvement by non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including 2 cases of primary pulmonary disease, were analyzed. The radiological manifestations of illness were divided into nodular (subpleural, deep parenchymal, or perihilar), pneumonic-alveolar (segmental or lobar), bronchovascular-lymphangitic (central bronchovascular or diffuse lymphangitic) and miliary-hematogenous. Histiocytic lymphoma was associated with infiltration of rapid onset in 6, cavitating nodules in 2 and diffuse lymphangitic dissemination in 9. Of 16 patients with lymphocytic lymphoma, 7 had lobar or segmental alveolar involvement.
