title: Primary duodenal lymphoma producing obstructive jaundice.
abstract: Primary lymphoma of the duodenum presenting with obstructive jaundice is a rare entity. We report a case of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the duodenum producing obstructive jaundice in a middle aged lady, where the concentric thickening of the duodenal wall also gave rise to symptomatic partial high small bowel obstruction in due course. Guided aspiration and flowcytometry established a diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
