Abstract

Primary thyroid lymphoma is rare. We describe the case of a 65-year-old woman with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis who presented a 12-month history of neck swelling. Our investigation revealed the presence of a Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma of the thyroid which accounts for 50 to 80% of thyroid primary lymphomas.
