Primary lymphoma involving the breast accounts for only 0.04–0.5% of malignant breast tumors, constituting 1–2 % of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). Here, we report a case of breast ALK-positive ALCL arising in a 21-year-old woman in pregnancy with single abscess as the first clinical manifestation.
