Primary bone lymphoma simultaneous to osteochondroma simulating sarcomatous degeneration: case report

In the literature, there is no evidence of relationship between primary bone lymphoma and osteochondroma or of coexistence of both of them in a single bone. The present report describes an uncommon case of primary bone lymphoma occurring simultaneously with osteochondroma in the proximal third of the tibia. In the present case, magnetic resonance imaging signs simulated the presence of sarcomatous degeneration.
