Abstract
Bladder secondary involvement rate in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) rea ches 13%. Nevertheless, clinical evidence of such an involvement is ve ry rare (less than 0.5%). We report a case of a NHL arising from the P eyer's plaques of the gut and involving secondly the bladder. The onse t symptomatology was urologic. Pathophysiology and clinical features o f secondary bladder lymphoma are discussed.
