Abstract

We present four cases of intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL), a rare malignancy with poor outcomes. The exclusive presence of lymphoma cells in blood vessels leads to a heterogenous presentation and poor diagnostic yield with traditional initial diagnostic tools. Timely diagnosis and treatment can lead to improved outcomes.
