Part of the book series: Hematologic Malignancies ((HEMATOLOGIC))

Abstract

Aggressive lymphomas commonly involve both nodal and extranodal locations. DLBCL may primarily involve discrete extranodal locations and be characterized by distinct biology, clinical presentation, and treatment considerations. Though any extranodal site in the body may be involved by DLBCL, unique consideration is warranted for DLBCLs which primarily involve the GI tract, bone, mediastinum, testis, breast, and skin. These entities will be reviewed, including approach to staging, prognosis, and management, including the role of radiation therapy and CNS prophylaxis.
