Thyroid lymphoma is an unusual pathology. Different subtypes of lymphoma can present as primary thyroid lymphoma. This review illustrates via imaging, findings and treatment the need for accurate diagnosis and timely treatment. Patients and methods: patient's chart, pathological findings and radiological images were reviewed in a retrospective analysis. Over several days, this 80 years old woman developed airway obstruction and rapid enlargement of her thyroid secondary to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. she rapidly responded to her oncological protocol. Primary thyroid lymphoma is a rare disease. It is an important diagnosis to consider in patients presenting with rapidly enlarging neck masses. It is a treatable condition with fairly favorable overall survival even with the most aggressive histological subtypes.

In this study we aimed to determine the relationship between sampling intensity and precision for estimating rodentdamage. We used the systematic row sampling technique to provide data to achieve precision and accuracy inestimations of rodent damage in maize fields at the planting and seedling stages. The actual rodent damage to maizein 15 fields, each 0.5 ha in size, in Morogoro, Tanzania, was established at the seedling stage. These data were usedto simulate the sampling intensities that would provide precision and accuracy. The variations between estimateswere plotted against the sampling intervals. The results of this study show that the relationship between averagestandardized variances and sampling intervals is linear. The heterogeneous distribution of damage in some plotscaused variations in the accuracy of the estimates between plots, but a sampling interval of five rows consistentlyproduced estimates with a variance of less than 10%. We provide a standard curve that will allow a decision to bemade on the sampling intensity as a function of required precision using the systematic row sampling technique inmaize fields.
