title: Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the seminal vesicles: ultrasonography and computed tomography findings.
abstract: Primary tumors of the seminal vesicle are very rare. We reported a 35-year-old man with a rare primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the seminal vesicles. By transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging, ultrasonic elastography (UE), and computed tomography (CT) imaging, the tumor was defined to locate in seminal vesicles. By TRUS-guided biopsy and histopathological examinations, the patient was diagnosed with large B-cell lymphoma. To our knowledge, this finding has not been reported before. We present the ultrasound and CT appearances of a case of large B-cell lymphoma of the seminal vesicles.
