IVLBCL may present with tumor formation on the aortic wall. Although the cause of its affinity to the aortic wall is yet unknown, autopsy findings imply that arteriosclerosis may have contributed to the tumor formation. The literature suggests that T-cell abnormalities could possibly be the common etiology of intravascular lymphoma, sarcoidosis, and FSGS.
