title: Primary pleomorphic T-cell lymphoma of the spleen.
abstract: We report a case of primary splenic T-cell lymphoma that posed difficult problems in differential diagnosis with erythrophagocytic T-gamma lymphoma and inflammatory pseudotumor of the spleen. The need for immunophenotypic and molecular studies for establishing the correct diagnosis and the importance of early detection and treatment, is emphasized in the light of the relatively good prognosis of splenic lymphoma, diagnosed in the early stages of disease.
