case_images: The left axilla showed enlarged lymph nodes. [Figure 1a and b] Ultrasonography demonstrated a circumscribed hypoechoic mass of 1.7 cm in the middle outer quadrant.
case_images: (a and b) Hematoxylin-eosin [H-E] stain shows complete effacement of lymph node architecture by neoplastic follicles composed of mixture of centrocytes and centroblasts. There is lack of tangible body macrophages and attenuated mantle zones

case_images: Microscopic examination of breast lumpectomy and axillary lump excision revealed lymph nodes with neoplastic follicles comprising of atypical small lymphoid cells and approximately 8-9 centroblasts in a high-power field [Figure 2a and b].
case_images: (a) Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining revealed the expression of CD20 by neoplastic B lymphocytes (magnification x20), (b) IHC staining with BCL2 highlights neoplastic B lymphocytes (magnification x20)
