Abstract
|
|
|
|
The stomach is the most common site of gastrointestinal tract lymphoma, while synchronous mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas of the stomach and duodenum are very rare. A literature review found no reported case of synchronous gastroduodenal MALT lymphomas with involvement of the bone marrow and spleen. Here, we describe the case of a 62-year-old male who was diagnosed with synchronous MALT lymphomas of the stomach and duodenum based on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and pathology. Other staging evaluations, including colonoscopy, abdominopelvic and chest computed tomography (CT), 18F fludeoxyglucose- positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), and a bone marrow examination, showed involvement of the bone marrow and spleen. We diagnosed stage EIV MALT lymphoma and began systemic chemotherapy. We report the first case of MALT lymphomas arising synchronously in both the stomach and duodenum with bone marrow involvement and review the literature.
