Acute upper arm ischaemia: a rare presentation of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Digital ischaemia has been sparsely reported in current literature. Its association with lymphomatous conditions has been described in even more exceptional occurrences. We present the first case of upper arm ischaemia associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. A brief literature review of this rare phenomenon is also accompanied with it.
