The present study aimed to review the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) imaging features of eight mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)-lymphoma cases of the parotid gland and to explore the diagnostic value of MDCT. A total of eight patients with pathologically confirmed MALT-lymphomas of the parotid gland underwent pre-operative MDCT plain and dual-phase scans. The changes in the CT...

Primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the prostate is a rare disease that characteristically follows an indolent course. It is believed that infection or chronic inflammation may be triggers for malignant transformation in the prostate, but it is of unknown etiology. Reports of MALT lymphomas of the prostate with other concurrent primary prostate cancers are even more lim...

Mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a lymphoid neoplasm arising in extranodal sites with histologic features similar to those of nodal marginal zone lymphoma. Among the sites where a primary MALT lymphoma arises, the GI tract is the most common whereas the breast represents only 4%. Bilateral involvement of the breasts by a primary MALT lymphoma is exceptional with only 10 case...

Mucosa associated lymphoid tissue MALT lymphoma is a low grade malignancy that arises most commonly from the gastric mucosa. Small intestinal involvement is very rare. The causative relationship between Helicobacter pylori and the gastric MALT lymphoma is a well known issue, but recently there are several data suggesting the role of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in the pathogenesis of lymph...

milk-based dairy desserts have important role in human diet because of their nutritional values. the aims of this study were to investigate the effect of hull-less barley malt flour and gelatin adding on different aspects of dairy dessert with the goal of increasing nutritional value and quality parameters. desserts were prepared by different gelatin concentration (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2%) and ...

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.

Nongastric primary extranodal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are uncommon, with around 0.1% occurring in the prostate. Even less frequent is the presence of MALT lymphoma synchronous with another type of neoplasm in the same organ, especially the prostate. Only a single case of concurrent adenocarcinoma and MALT lymphoma of the prostate has been reported in the literature. W...

Anatomically, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) is found in various parts of the body. In the colon, lymphoid tissue occurs mainly as isolated lymphoid follicles that are composed mainly of B lymphocytes. Such gastrointestinal tract MALT plays an important role in immune surveillance and mucosal regeneration, but the cells inMALTmayoccasionally undergo abnormal proliferation and give ris...

Extranodal marginal zone B-cell type lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) in dogs has similar properties to human low-grade B-cell lymphoma. Both are characterised by a relatively low mitotic rate and a slow manifestation of clinical signs. Primary MALT lymphoma of the third eyelid in canines is very rare. In this case report we describe bilateral MALT lymphoma in a 21-month-old...

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are characterized by lymphoepithelial lesions pathologically. Colonic MALT lymphomas are relatively rarer than lymphomas of the stomach or small intestine. Endoscopically, colonic MALT lymphoma frequently appears as a nonpedunculated protruding polypoid mass and/or an ulceration in the cecum and/or rectum. We report a unique case of a colonic M...
