Abstract
We report two cases of malignant lymphoma reguiring surgical treatment. In one case, we resected the tumor widely because chemotherapy and radiation were not effective. In the other case, fearing pathological fracture, proximal femoral bone prosthesis was performed, followed by chemotherapy. Generally radiation or chemotherapy is selected for malignant lymphoma as the treatment of first choice. However operative treatment is considered effective for quality of life is some cases.
