A case of diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma originating from chest wall complicated by benign asbestos pleural effusion
Abstract A 78‐year‐old man with exposure to asbestos was admitted to our hospital for back pain. A chest computed tomography showed right pleural effusion and a significant increase in the size of masses in the right chest wall over an interval of six months. He did not undergo further examinations...
