ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss X-ray, CT and MR findings of primary bone lymphoma. Methods The X-ray, CT and MR findings of 6 cases with non-Hodgkin lymphoma of bone proved pathologically were retrospectively analysed.Results The average age of 6 cases was 51 years old and the lesions all localized at long bone(especially the metadiaphysis) and pelvis. Imaging findings included: osteolytic or moth-eaten bone destruction,surrounding soft tissue mass formation which generally exceeded the extents of bony changes, the cortex bone was destructed and discontinuity.Conclusion primary bone lymphoma has prevalent age and certain imaging specificity.
