title: An unusual presentation of non-Hodgkins lymphoma: a case report.

  Breast lymphoma is an uncommon disease with poor clinical outcome. The rarity of the disease is related to relatively small amount of lymphoid tissues in the breast. The prognosis usually depends on the stage at presentation.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To highlight an uncommon presentation of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma can affect the breast. A high index of suspicion and prompt histological diagnosis are needed for effective management.
