title: Calcification in primary lung non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
abstract: Calcification in lymphoma before treatment or after chemotherapy is extremely rare. There have been scarse reports of calcified masses due to Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas, originating in the main lymphatic chains of the mediastinum and retroperitoneum. We report a case of primarily extra-nodal (pulmonary) non-Hodgkin lymphoma with calcification prior to current treatment.
