A 43-year-old man with macrohematuria and anuresis was admitted, and diagnosed as having bladder tamponade due to coagulates. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed bilateral renal tumors. Bilateral renal arteriography showed hypovascular lesions. Percutaneous needle biopsy of the left renal tumor was performed, and the final diagnosis was non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (diffuse mixed, B cell type, CSIIA). After six courses of chemotherapy, the tumor lesions were markedly reduced, and at present there is no evidence of recurrence.

Background: The most frequent type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Although lymph nodes are the most commonly affected organs compromising 70% of DLBCLs, only 5% of extranodal lymphomas represent skeletal muscle involvement. Specifically, abdominal wall muscle involvement is rare and there are only a few reported cases of DLBCL with this type of muscle involvement.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) of the breast is a rare histological subtype of breast cancer, which usually has a low propensity for metastasis and is associated with a good prognosis. AdCC metastasis to the kidney is rare, with only 29 cases reported in the literature. We report a case of a woman in her 60s with multiple right-sided large cystic-solid renal lesions after a recent diagnosis of marginal zone B-cell lymphoma.

B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the most common hematologic malignancy, capable of invading the brain, meninges, and nerve roots of the brain and spine, leading to high lethality. Herein, we designed and developed novel nanostructures for the first time by biofunctionalizing chitosan with two specific antibodies (i.e.
