title: [Primary thyroid extranodal marginal zone lymphoma].
abstract: The paper gives the data available in the literature on the clinical and morphological features of thyroid lymphomas and on their diagnostic principles. The authors' observation details the histological and immunohistochemical characteristics of primary thyroid extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. The specific feature of the observation is total thyroid tissue substitution for tumor cells so the characteristic sign of chronic autoimmune thyroiditis were undetectable, but found only immunohistochemically from the remaining thyroid tissue follicle-like structures, which bears out the relationship between the development of lymphoma and autoimmune thyroiditis.
