Lymphoplasmacytoid lymphomas (LPL) are non-Hodgkin's lymphomas

characterized by a proliferation of lymphoplasmacytoid cells or

plasma cells with intracytoplasmic monoclonal Ig.

The LPL are low-grade B-cell neoplasms close to B chronic lymphocytic

leukemia with plasmacytoid differentiation. T

hey show an indolent course, typically affect older men, and present

as a disseminated disease with predominantly nodal involvement.

Nevertheless, localized forms, some of them extranodal, have been

described.

The cases that best represent the range of radiographic findings on X-

ray, CT, and MR imaging are presented.
