Mantle cell lymphoma involving the prostate with features of granulomatous prostatitis: a case report.
A case of mantle cell lymphoma involving the prostate is reported. This was associated with scattered histiocytes and features of granulomatous prostatitis. This demonstrates that histiocytes are seen in mantle cell lymphoma in unusual sites and raises the possibility of a pathogenetic association with granulomatous prostatitis.
