Description

The association between autoimmune rheumatic diseases and malignancy, and between lymphoproliferative disorders and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), in particular, has been documented. Although the imaging features of pulmonary lymphoma and of pulmonary manifestations of SLE have been described separately, the imaging features of the 2 together have not been demonstrated. We present the cases of 2 patients with SLE presenting with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). (author)
