    <abstract locale="en_US">The most frequently studied association between a hepatitis virus and Non Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) has been with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Association with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is less studied. In this regard mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC) is more commonly associated with HCV than HBV. Still rarer is cryofibrinogenemia in these patients.&#xA0; Lack of symptoms in addition its rarity delays the diagnosis of cryofibrinogenemia and thus the underlying disorders like lymphoma, etc. This case report describes the diagnosis of unsuspected B cell lymphoma in a patient who presented with absolutely no hematological signs and symptoms and underscores the importance of integrated multidisciplinary approach in the diagnosis of such rare presentations of common hematological malignancies.</abstract>
