introduction: lymphoma may involve the gastrointestinal tract either primarily or as a manifestation of extensively disseminated systemic disease. stomach being the most frequent site of primary gastroin-testinal lyphoma, followed by the small bowel and colon respectively (1&2&3). for diagnosis of pi-mary small intestinal lymphoma (psil), one most satisfies the criteria specified by dawson and ...

introduction: lymphomas as a group rank seventh as the most leading cause of death in cancers. stomach is the most common extra nodal site of primary lymphomas. on the other hand, new information demonstrates that malt lymphoma responds to helicobacter antibiotic therapy. we therefore decided to determine the frequency of distribution of helicobacter pylori infection in primary gastric lymphoma...

Objectives: Helicobacter pylori infection is a risk factor for gastric adenocarcinoma and primary gastric lymphoma. We examined whether this H. pylori infection is also a prognostic factor for gastric cancer and primary gastric lymphoma. Methods: Resected or biopsied specimens from 255 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma and primary gastric lymphoma were investigated for H. pylori status. Hema...

Introduction: Primary gastric lymphoma (PGL) is a rare tumor, whose differential diagnosis may become complicated without precise immunohistochemistry (IHC) and genetic analysis. Case Presentation: A 33-year-old woman presented with gastric cancer and had undergone gastrectomy without precise IHC and staging in another center.
