Abstract
Primary malignant non-Hodgkin lymphoma is rare. The mammographic appea rance is unspecific. The final diagnosis can usually be made after exa mination of paraffin-embedded tissue only. There exists no therapeutic standard for this disease. In the case of 3 patients treated at our i nstitution, tumorectomy only and adjuvant therapy have been performed because there is no survival advantage for patients who underwent radi cal surgery.
