Endoscopic Diagnosis of Gastric MALT Lymphoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
The endoscopic findings of gastric MALT lymphoma are variable, making its diagnosis very difficult. Although there are many reports on the endoscopic findings of gastric cancer, there are few on those of gastric MALT lymphoma. Herein, we summarize the reports on the endoscopic findings of gastric MALT lymphoma, and report its endoscopic diagnosis.

متن کاملTreatment of low-grade gastric MALT lymphoma using Helicobacter pylori eradication.
BACKGROUND/AIM Lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) of the stomach usually occurs as a consequence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term effect of treatment of low-grade gastric MALT lymphoma with the H. pylori eradication method. METHODS In the period 2002-2012 in 20 patients with dyspepsia, mean age 55.1...
متن کاملEndoscopic Findings of Gastric Extranodal Marginal Zone B-Cell Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma
Approximately 360,000 new cases of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma were diagnosed worldwide in 2014. Of these, approximately 7% were diagnosed with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Gastric extranodal marginal zone B-cell MALT lymphoma accounts for 1%–7% of malignant gastric tumors and 60%–75% of gastrointestinal MALT lymphomas. Gastric MALT lymphoma shows various endoscopic findings. T...
متن کاملCorrelation of Endoscopic Findings of Gastric Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma with Recurrence after Complete Remission
BACKGROUND/AIMS In gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, the clinical significance of various endoscopic findings has not yet been determined. This study aimed to compare the time to complete remission (CR) and relapse-free survival (RFS) in gastric MALT lymphoma based on endoscopic findings. METHODS In this single-center retrospective cohort study, the medical records of...
متن کاملIs narrow-band imaging useful for histological evaluation of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma after treatment?
BACKGROUND AND AIM Endoscopic diagnosis of stomach mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is often difficult because few specific findings are indicated. Even when MALT lymphoma is suspected by endoscopy, it is still difficult to make a definitive diagnosis by biopsy because lymphoma cells sometimes distribute unevenly. We previously reported that a tree-like appearance (TLA) is a ch...
