Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is an important and common AIDS-related neoplasm. AIDS-related NHL can be defined by its anatomic distribution as systemic (nodal and extranodal masses), primary central nervous system, and occasionally body cavity-based lymphomas (BCBL). Radiologic imaging plays an important role in differentiating the varied appearances of AIDS-related NHL, particularly regarding BCBL: patients' images demonstrate only fluid in the pleural, pericardial, and/or peritoneal spaces. Imaging of a case of BCBL is presented, including simultaneous pericardial, pleural, and peritoneal effusions.
