3 Figure 2 Right distal tibia bone biopsy (yellow arrows) with Hematoxylin and Eosin staining showing monomorphic and diffuse paratrabecular proliferation of small lymphocitic elements, apparently with a normal maturation pattern. Immunophentypic analysis determining positivity for CD20, CD3 (less than 1 %), CD5, CD23 and with a Ki-67 about 5 %.

4 Figure 3 PET-CT scan with 18F-FDG showing , at time of diagnostic workup, an hypermetabolic glucose activity (SUVmax 2.2) at level of endomedullary compartment of right distal tibia (fig.3a, blue arrows). Complete metabolic answer following salvage radiotherapy with an indolent lymphoma dose range of 24 Gy (fig3b, blue arrows) at 3 months and at 17 months (fig3c, blue arrows).
