It is further categorised into primary BL and secondary BL. This manuscript presents a case report of a patient diagnosed with secondary BL.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case Description<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 51-year-old female presented in the one-stop breast clinic with 6-month history of having a static and painless left breast lump. Mass was firm, non-tender and 2 cm in size. It was not adherent to skin or muscle and it was present in the upper outer quadrant of the left breast. Mammo-sonography revealed a circumscribed mass of 17 mm in the outer quadrant of the left breast. There were enlarged ipsilateral lymph nodes. Core biopsy suggested atypical lymphoid infiltrates. She underwent wide local excision of breast and axillary nodal mass. The definitive histological diagnosis revealed non-Hodgkin\u2019s follicular lymphoma grade 2\/3. Staging computed tomography scan features were suggestive of cervical lymphadenopathy. Hence, staging workup proved this to be a case of secondary BL.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Practical Implication<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The early diagnosis of BL is highly relevant. Its diagnosis is challenging due to non-specific clinical presentation and imaging features. Commonly FL is diagnosed on excisional biopsy or after wide local breast mass excision. Primary and secondary lymphomas, though rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of breast malignancies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.37029\/jcas.v8i2.471","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,8]],"date-time":"2022-08-08T11:11:16Z","timestamp":1659957076000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Follicular Lymphoma of Breast: A Case Report from Pakistan"],"prefix":"10.2478","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Namra","family":"Urooj","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical Oncology , Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre , Lahore , Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Umair","family":"Ahmed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology , Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre , Lahore , Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amina","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical Oncology , Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre , Lahore , Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zulqarnain","family":"Chaudhry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical Oncology , Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre , Lahore , Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Muhammad Asad","family":"Parvaiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical Oncology , Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre , Lahore , Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026091914252085843_j_jcas.v8i2.471_ref_001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Topalovski M, Crisan D, Mattson JC.
