Primary lymphoma of the liver mimicking metastatic liver disease.
Primary lymphoma of the liver is rare. In the 50 previously reported cases in the literature, computed tomography usually showed a solitary, bulky hypodense area in the liver. We report a case of primary lymphoma of the liver presenting multiple lesions in the liver and clinical and biochemical evidence suggestive of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the liver.
