MASİF TİROİD BEZİ BÜYÜMESİ İLE PRESENTE OLAN VE TİROİD KANSERİNİ ANDIRAN DİFFÜZ BÜYÜK B HÜCRELİ LENFOMA

Diffüz büyük B hücreli lenfoma (DLBCL), Non-Hodgkin lenfomalar arasında erişkinlerde en sık görülen lenfomadır. Tüm Non-Hodgkin lenfomaların yaklaşık % 30-58'ini oluşturur. Hastalık çoğunlukla sistemik semptomlarla birlikte, hızlı büyüyen nodal veya ekstranodal kitle şeklinde ortaya çıkar. Ani boyun şişliği gibi hayati tehlike oluşturabilecek acil bir durum ile karşımıza gelebilir. Biz 81 yaşında ani boyun şişliği ve dispne ile başvuran, acilen trakeostomi açılan bir boyun şişliği vakasını sunmayı amaçladık.

DIFFUSE LARGE B CELL LYMPHOMA PRESENTED WITH MASSIVE THYROID GLAND ENLARGEMENT AND RESEMBLING THYROID CANCER

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common nonHodgkin lymphoma in adults. It accounts for about 30-58% of all Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The disease often presents as a rapidly growing nodal or extranodal mass with systemic symptoms. It can be presented with a life-threatening emergency such as a sudden neck swelling. We aimed to present a case of neck swelling that was presented at the age of 81 with sudden neck swelling and dyspnea, to whom an urgent tracheostomy was performed.
