Linfoma No Hodgkin como Presentación de Tumor Primario de Pene en Paciente con Reciente Diagnóstico de VIH. Reporte de un Caso
Abstract
ABSTRACT: A 41-year-old male patient, recently diagnosed with HIV, presented to the urology service with swelling in the distal region of the penis and left scrotal region. He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, the first reported case in Cuba with primary penile presentation. OBJECTIVE: To present the approach and diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma as a primary penile tumor associated with HIV. This is an extremely rare disease in its initial presentation, with only isolated cases reported in the international literature, making it a case of interest. CONCLUSIONS: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma as a primary penile lesion is a rare entity. These patients have a predisposition to developing lymphoid system neoplasms, with non-Hodgkin lymphoma being one of the most frequent. However, it is very rare to find it as a primary penile lesion, so we must maintain a high level of suspicion to identify early signs of this disease
