【 摘 要 】

Abstract An 85‐year‐old woman presented with pain and a palpable mass in her left flank. Abdominal computed tomography revealed massive splenomegaly and para‐aortic lymphadenopathies. Bone marrow biopsy showed CD79a, CD20, and bcl‐2‐positive atypical lymphocytes, which led to the diagnosis of splenic marginal zone lymphoma.
