Abstract

Metastasis of one cancer to another cancer is rare. This report describes three cases in which low grade non-Hodgkin lymphomas were incidentally detected during the examination of lymph nodes removed as part of treatment of a previously diagnosed malignancy.

  • Carcinoma
  • metastasis
  • synchronous
  • chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
  • small lymphocytic lymphoma
  • CLL, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
  • NHL, non-Hodgkin lymphoma
  • SCC, small lymphocytic lymphoma
