Abstract
20 year old female with no prior medical history presents with diffuse cervical lymphadenopathy. CT and subsequent positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET/CT) demonstrated diffuse lymphatomous involvement of multiple lymph nodes in the neck, mediastinum, and retroperitoneum. The patient underwent ABVD therapy which resulted in the lymphoma being in remission for 2 years. The patient had a repeat PET/CT done after 2 years due to complaints of recurrent lymphadenopathy. The PET/CT revealed a new hypermetabolic focus by the right femur. MRI demonstrated an enhancing nodule in that region which raised suspicion for possible site of lymphoma recurrence. Percutaneous biopsy showed nodular fasciitis.
