Adenocarcinoma is the most frequent pathological type of stomach cancer. Hodgkin's lymphoma is a lymphoproliferative disease arising from lymphoid tissue which is characterized by Reed-Sternberg cells. Synchronous occurrence of these two malignancies has not been reported in the English literature so far.
Here we present a 52-year-old male complaining of epigastric pain and fever diagnosed as stomach adenocarcinoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma.
It is thought that this case is the first of a synchronous stomach adenocarcinoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma encountered in the English literature. It should be kept in mind that second malignancies can be seen in mass lesions in patients diagnosed with cancer.
腺癌是胃癌最常见的病理类型。霍奇金淋巴瘤是一种起源于淋巴组织的淋巴增殖性疾病,其特征为里德-斯腾伯格细胞。迄今为止,英文文献中尚未报道过这两种恶性肿瘤同时发生的情况。
在此,我们报告一名52岁男性,主诉上腹部疼痛和发热,被诊断为胃腺癌和霍奇金淋巴瘤。
据认为,该病例是英文文献中首次遇到的胃腺癌与霍奇金淋巴瘤同时发生的病例。应牢记,在诊断为癌症的患者的肿块病变中可能会出现第二种恶性肿瘤。
