Abstrakt:	A primary care visit is the first encounter of a patient with health care. In context to malignancies, breast cancer and primary ovarian lymphomas are NA clinically and morphologically different malignancies. The rare concurrence of breast cancer and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) does not warrant any routine surveillance through testing but we present a case of a 71-year-old female with the history of invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast in remission who was diagnosed with follicular carcinoma after an abnormal pelvic examination during her routine primary care visit. This highlights that a routine PC visit with a skilled physical examination can prove to be one of the most cost-effective tools for screening high-risk cancer patients in remission.
