Abstract

Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is low grade lymphoma and accounts about 5% of all lymphomas and 5 e10% of MZLs are localized in the lung. Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a group of systemic diseases characterized by diffuse inflammation in lung and there is a long list for differential diagnosis. Here we represent a 53 years old man who had been followed as ILD by the department of chest diseases for 1,5 years. Biopsy taken by wedge resection was reported as MZL.
