An obscure cause of leg edema, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
A 25-year-old female having asymptomatic edema of unilateral leg was provisionally diagnosed as a case of psoas abscess. Later, she turned out to be a case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This presentation is contrary to usual age and mode of presentation of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
