Primary Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Of The Urinary Bladder: A Case Report And Review Of Literature

The urinary bladder is involved in less than 0.2% of lymphomas, and most of these are mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT); fewer than 20% of lymphomas of the urinary bladder are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Herein, we report a case of DLBCL in a 62-year-old man treated by 6 cycles of R-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone plus the monoclonal antibody rituximab) chemotherapy, without local or distant recurrences after 16-month's follow-up. A literature review is included.
