Description
Radu Chiriac, Lucile Baseggio, and Marie Donzel report a follicular lymphoma that changed into a far more aggressive form, in a 2024 paper. The man, aged forty eight, had reached full remission on antibody plus chemotherapy and was on upkeep therapy. He then came in with upper belly pain.
Blood tests showed a very high enzyme level and mild anemia, with odd lymphoma cells in the blood. Scans found a large mass behind the gut with strong tracer uptake. Cell tests showed a mature B cell growth with two key gene swaps and a marker more typical of young cell tumors. The case shows how a quiet lymphoma can transform, and why new pain in remission demands a fast, full workup.
