title: Prostate involvement by intravascular large B-cell lymphoma: a case report with literature review.
abstract: Prostate involvement by intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBL) is extremely rare. Until now, only 6 cases have been reported in the literature. In this article, the authors report a case of a 65-year-old Chinese man with IVLBL located in the prostate. The diagnosis of IVLBL was obtained incidentally from a biopsy of his prostatectomy specimen. The patient underwent CHOP therapy for 5 cycles and had a favorable clinical outcome.
