A case of precursor
B-cell lymphoma
of unusual location in the mandible is presented. Clinical features as well as technical examinations led to the misdiagnosis of
chronic osteomyelitis
. Only immunohistological examination of intraoperatively taken biopsies was able to reveal the true diagnosis. High-dose chemotherapy was started and full remission could be achieved.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) associated with chronic inflammation is a recently adopted category of DLBCL, which describes an aggressive
B-cell lymphoma
raised in the setting of non-immune chronic inflammation. Primary presentation of this subtype of DLBCL in bone is extremely rare. Here, we present the case of a 27 year old woman with DLBCL of the right distal femur, identified after a three-year history of
chronic osteomyelitis
. In this report, we describe the clinical and histopathologic features of this unusual presentation of DLBCL and discuss aspects relevant to diagnosis and treatment of this entity.

We present a case of a 15-year-old male with primary bone lymphoma who was initially referred for suspicion of
chronic osteomyelitis
of the mandible. A bone scan and gallium scan demonstrated congruent uptake in the mandible, suggestive of
chronic osteomyelitis
. A biopsy subsequently showed
B-cell lymphoma
of the bone with low Ki-67. A fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scan performed before therapy for staging revealed no increased uptake in the mandible. This case shows an atypical presentation of a rare disorder and is presented to emphasize the importance of baseline FDG-PET.

The diagnosis between
chronic osteomyelitis
, Ewing sarcoma and lymphoma often is being confusing in many occasions. As the latter two conditions are malignant, early diagnosis and interventions are crucial. We present a 28 year old male with features of
chronic osteomyelitis
of right tibia 2 years back then changed through Ewing sarcoma to
B-cell lymphoma
in the histological diagnosis. This case report highlights the difficulties that arise in diagnosing primary bone lymphomas which may masquerade as
chronic osteomyelitis
and hence the need for immunohistochemistry in chronic recurrent osteomyelitis.
