[Primary endobronchial non-hodgkins lymphoma: description of a case and review of the literature]. / Linfoma no Hodgkin endobronquial primario: a propósito de un caso y revisión de la literatura.

We report a case of primary endobronchial non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, an unusual extranodal lymphoma, in a 62 year old patient, which begins with malaise, marked respiratory symptoms and empyema. We especially discuss its diagnostic's criteria and its clinicoradiologic manifestations. We argue over its pathologic, immunohistochemical and cytogenetic features according to the REAL classification of lymphomas. On previous experience and the good response of this case, we propose chemotherapy followed radiotherapy may would be a suitable therapeutic approach.
