Gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas (MALTomas) are well-documented and their management effectively established, but colonic MALTomas are extremely rare and not many know it could occur. We report the first colonic MALToma in the UK. The patient was managed in accordance with gastric MALToma management modalities in accordance with the evidence in the literature. After failure of medical management, a surgical resection was the last and successful option for treatment.Though gastric MALToma management is well-established, the colonic form of the disease does not act the same and requires a more aggressive approach.
胃黏膜相关淋巴组织淋巴瘤(MALTomas)已有充分记录,其治疗方法也已有效确立,但结肠MALTomas极为罕见,很多人并不知道它会发生。我们报告了英国首例结肠MALToma。根据文献中的证据,该患者按照胃MALToma的治疗方式进行处理。药物治疗失败后,手术切除是最后的成功治疗选择。虽然胃MALToma的治疗方法已确立,但这种疾病的结肠形式表现不同,需要更积极的治疗方法。
