Reports of malignant lymphoma accompanied by silicosis are limited. A 93-year-old man with silicosis presented with right massive pleural effusions and was diagnosed with primary pleural lymphoma. Since there was no evidence of chronic pyothorax or Epstein-Barr virus infection, it may be due to silicosis-associated chronic inflammation.
