| Popis: | Summary A patient with an aggressive intrasinusoidal non-Hodgkins lymphoma, presenting with marked systemic disturbance but only a mildly raised alkaline phosphatase as a localising sign is described. All imaging studies of the liver were normal and the diagnosis was delayed until a percutaneous liver biopsy was performed. Once diagnosed, the patient responded extremely well to conventional anti-lymphoma chemotherapy. |
