Large polypoid lymphoid follicles in the stomach causing anemia.
causing anemia A 73-year-old woman with type C hepatitis underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy because of asymptomatic anemia (hemoglobin concentration 8.6g/dL). Endoscopy revealed a large pedunculated polyp in the greater curvature of the gastric body (●" Fig.1a). The polyp was covered for the most part by normal reddish mucosa and partly by an ulcer (●" Fig.1b). Biopsy specimens obtained from ...
متن کاملA Polypoid Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma of the Stomach Treated with Endoscopic Polypectomy
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the stomach is the most common extranodal lymphoma of the gastrointestinal tract. It is usually accompanied by Helicobacter pylori infection, and eradication of H. pylori remains the mainstay of treatment for gastric MALT lymphoma. However, there is no consensus on the second-line treatment for patients with gastric MALT lymphoma who do not i...
متن کاملLymphoid follicles in chronic lung diseases.
Lymphoid follicles (LFs) can be induced in the lung on infection or chronic inflammation; however, their relevance and contribution to protective immunity or pathogenesis is poorly understood. Recent advances from clinical studies and animal models have shed some light on the mechanisms that trigger and facilitate the development of LFs. As we grasp a better understanding of their development a...
متن کاملPrimary lymphoid neoplasms of the stomach.
Primary lymphoid neoplasms of the stomach may closely simulate carcinomata but carry an appreciably better prognosis after surgical treatment. This paper reports a clinical and pathological study of local gastric lymphoid tumours and also studies in patients with gastric involvement with generalized reticulosis.
متن کاملMechanisms of organogenesis of primary lymphoid follicles.
Primary lymphoid follicles (PLFs) in secondary lymphoid tissue (SLT) of mammals are the backbone for the formation of follicular dendritic cell (FDC) networks. These are important for germinal center reactions during which affinity maturation creates optimized antibodies in adaptive immune responses. In the context of organogenesis, molecular requirements for the formation of follicles have bee...
