Introduction: Discordant lymphomas are uncommon and defined based on the different histology between the study of the bone marrow and that of another affected site, such as a lymph node. Due to the rarity of this disease, there are few cases reported in the literature and it does not have well-defined criteria for diagnosis. Case report: In this report, we describe the case of a 59-year-old immunocompetent man who presented with Discordant Lymphomas.
