Özet
Primary bone lymphoma is a rare group of lymphomas. Histologically, the most common type of primary bone lymphoma is diffuse large cell type and of intermediate type. We present a case with primary bone lymphoma and treated with 8 cycles of CHOP regimen resulted with partial response with persisting bone lesions. High dose chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation was performed two years after of diagnosis and, osteolytic lesions on the bones completely disappeared after this treatment. The patient is still in remission without any new bone events and with normal clinical and laboratory findings. Complete disappearance and durable complete remission of bone lesions in primary bone lymphoma is very rare, even after high dose chemotherapy. Copyright © Hellenic Society of Haematology.
