About a General Approach of Primary Lung Lymphomas
Primary pulmonary lymphomas are very rare accounting for 0.5 to 1% of the primary malignant tumors of the lung. They are dominated by the mucosa-associated-lymphoid tissue lymphoma, high grade B cell lymphoma and lymphomatoid granulomatosis. The diagnosis and the management of these tumors remain debated and challenging. We target to assess the pathogenesis, clinical, microscopic and radiologic characteristics of these tumors. In the other hand, we target to highlight the main treatment modalities and to emphasize on the necessity of a standardization of the management of these tumors.
