ABSTRACT
Introduction and importance: Primary bladder lymphoma accounts for a mere fraction of vesical tumours and extranodal lymphomas, which mostly affect women. IGH-BCL2 translocation, which occurs in 80-100% of Western follicular variants but only 60% in Asian communities, must be studied to determine its effects on prognosis and treatment. This study analyses and compares relevant literature and data for the authors' case report. Case presentation: The authors report a 69-year-old Caucasian female with one gross haematuria episode and no smoking history. Computed tomography (CT) showed a bilateral massive intraluminal mass left ureterovesical junction, hydronephrosis, and hydroureter. Clinical discussion: Following the removal of a massive transurethral urinary bladder tumour, histological examination revealed lymphoma cells positive for IRTA and LMO2 but negative for IGH-BCL2. After these analyses, the patient received 3 weeks of 30 Gy/15 f IMRT/IGRT. Comparisons were made to previous case reports' histopathology. Conclusion: The current case report emphasizes the rarity of primary bladder lymphoma and the absence of the IGH-BCL2 fusion gene. Following the successful administration of 30 Gy of radiation therapy, the patient's prognosis improved. The report emphasizes clinical vigilance and timely management while also urging further investigation.
