ABSTRACT

Breast cancer is the most common neoplasm in female sex and the main cause of death in women. The case of a 65-year-old woman is reported. She had a history of seemingly previous good health and showed an increase in the volume of the right breast. A lumpectomy was performed; the Department of Anatomical Pathology reported: right breast diffuse large cell nodule showing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and high grade of malignancy. An immunohistochemical study was performed, which confirmed the diagnosis. Currently the patient does not have any tumoral recurrence and shows a good clinical evolution.
