The development of diffuse large B cell lymphoma during the course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia is known as Richter's syndrome, considered as one of the most serious complications of this disease. It occurs mainly in lymphoid tissues and organs, for which extranodal involvement--especially in the gastrointestinal tract--is not common.
We describe here the case of a 61-year-old patient with lower gastrointestinal bleeding caused by colonic involvement of the syndrome.
慢性淋巴细胞白血病病程中发生弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤被称为里氏综合征，被认为是该疾病最严重的并发症之一。它主要发生在淋巴组织和器官，结外受累——尤其是在胃肠道——并不常见。
我们在此描述一名61岁患者的病例，该患者因该综合征累及结肠导致下消化道出血。
