title: Pure red cell aplasia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: a case report and brief literature review.
abstract: Pure red cell aplasia associated with lymphoproliferative malignancies other than thymoma is an uncommon occurrence. In the present paper we report a rare case of nodular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with pure red cell aplasia who presented with symptoms related to anemia rather than the lymphoma and responded well to combination chemotherapy.
