Primary T-cell-rich B-cell lymphoma in the kidney presenting with acute renal failure and a second malignancy

Infiltration of the kidney is commonly found in lymphoma, but acute renal failure arising from bilateral renal infiltration is uncommon. Primary renal lymphoma may occur and is usually of B-cell lineage. It is rare for patients with lymphoma to develop acute renal failure as their initial clinical p...

Description
Summary:	Infiltration of the kidney is commonly found in lymphoma, but acute renal failure arising from bilateral renal infiltration is uncommon. Primary renal lymphoma may occur and is usually of B-cell lineage. It is rare for patients with lymphoma to develop acute renal failure as their initial clinical presentation. Recently, an association between primary renal lymphoma and a second primary malignancy has been reported. We describe the first case of a renal T-cell-rich B-cell lymphoma presenting as acute renal failure, which was associated with a second primary pulmonary malignancy.
