Core Tip Primary hepatic peripheral T-cell lymphoma (H-PTCL) is one of the rarest forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We report a patient who presented with worsening jaundice, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Laboratory values were significant for elevated total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, and liver enzymes. Liver biopsy followed by histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of H-PTCL. Furthermore, bone marrow biopsy was negative for malignancy, further supporting hepatic origin. Our patient’s medical history reported a prior Epstein-Barr viral infection, a risk factor for H-PTCL. In the setting of risk factors, H-PTCL should be born in mind when a patient presents with symptoms of malignancy, and an enlarged and infiltrating liver.
