Endobronchial non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
A 64-year-old man with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma suffered a complete collapse of the left upper lobe of the lung. Fibreoptic bronchoscopy demonstrated a large number of distinct polypoid tumours of the lymphoma in the trachea and bilateral sub-segmental bronchi. The left upper lobe bronchus was completely occluded by the tumours, which responded to the combination chemotherapy against the lymphoma. This report presents the seventh case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with multiple endobronchial tumours.
