ABSTRACT
Splenic lymphoma is an indolent form of mature B-cell neoplasm. It is very rare and overlaps with other lymphomas. The hall mark of clinical presentation is splenomegaly and it usually becomes symptomatic when spleen becomes massive and associated with cytopenia. We discuss here about a 48yr old female with malignant non Hodgkin’s lymphoma- spleen. The case is published for its rarity.
