Funda Ceran,Yusuf AydIn,Levent Özçakar,Ünsal Han,Mehmet YIldIz 연세대학교의과대학 2009 Yonsei medical journal Vol.50 No.6
A primary effusion lymphoma is a rare type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma where serous cavities are involved. Thatcause peritoneal, pleural and pericardial effusions without any lymphadenopathy. They affect immunosuppressive patients with human herpes virus-8 being the suspected etiological agent. The prognosis is usually poor despite treatment. Herein, the case of an immunocompetent patient with ascites and pleural effusion diagnosed as primary effusion lymphoma is presented and discuss the case in the light of the current literature.
