✦ Synopsis

Abstract

An 8‐year‐old boy presented with dysuria and acute retention of urine. Rectal examination showed a hard mass arising from the prostate. CT scan of the pelvis confirmed the presence of a large prostatic tumor causing bladder outflow obstruction. A provisional diagnosis of pelvic sarcoma was initially made. Biopsy of the tumor mass however, revealed non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma of T‐cell type. The tumor showed very good response to chemotherapy and the urinary obstruction significantly improved with a week after starting therapy. © 1995 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Neopterin excretion levels were assessed in 66 consecutive patients affected by non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). The logarithm of the mean value of the whole series was 2.71 (log [pmol neopterin/mol creatinine]), significantly higher (P < 0.001) than the control value (2.12). Fifty-six of 66 patients
