abstract: The authors report a rare case of primary rectal lymphoma non Hodgkin in a young non HIV infected man. Preoperative diagnostic problems, the standards for classification and staging and the proper treatment are briefly discussed. The importance of an accurate histological and immunohistochemical study on preoperative multiple biopsies for a correct diagnosis, staging and treatment, are emphasised in this report.
