Muscle enlargement in lymphoma patients

M V Pilepich et al. Radiology. 1980 Feb.

Abstract

Five patients with regional muscle enlargement were identified among 97 lymphoma patients who underwent CT scanning as a part of their work-up. Muscle enlargement occurred in the absence of lymphatic or venous obstruction or direct involvement of the muscle by the tumor. Prompt resolution of the phenomenon was observed following radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
