Bone involvement in a patient with Hodgkin's lymphoma usually occurs after diagnosis, but unusually it can occur from the onset of symptoms. The case of a young woman who began with bone manifestations is presented. Initially, other diagnoses were considered, which were reassessed due to the progression and persistence of symptoms until diagnostic confirmation of Hodgkin's lymphoma of the nodular sclerosis variety. After evidence of mixed bone lesions in magnetic resonance imaging, a definitive diagnosis was achieved in a lymph node biopsy that showed the characteristic Reed-Sternberg cells. Due to the infrequency of these cases, its publication is considered necessary to alert about the inclusion of this diagnostic thought in patients who present bone pain as the beginning of a cancer not yet diagnosed.
