Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Mimicking Intramural Hematoma of the Thoracic Aorta
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive lymphoma that is fatal if left untreated. Few cases have been reported of involvement of the aorta. Here we present a case of DLBCL that was diagnosed by periaortic computed tomography–guided biopsy. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
