Primary Malignant B-cell Lymphoma of the Epididymis

Lymphomas are cancerous lymph nodes and lymphatic tissue. Primary extranodal lymphoma is a case of primary affection of the extranodal region with predominant tumor mass in this localization. Primary lymphoma of the epididymis without systemic involvement of lymphatic tissue is extremely rare. The first case was described by Schned et al. in 1979.
