The presentation of a MALT lymphoma in the bladder is exceedingly rare. Furthermore, the optimal treatment of primary MALT confined to the bladder remains to be defined. Here, we report a case of a 65-year-old female with primary MALT lymphoma treated with definitive radiation therapy. The patient received a total dose of 30 Gy in 20 equal daily fractions to the bladder and tolerated the treatment well. In addition, we have extensively reviewed the relevant literature to better define the optimal management of this rare disease. In conclusion, primary MALT lymphoma of the bladder represents a rare malignancy with excellent prognosis if detected at an early stage. For early stage disease, definitive radiation represents an excellent treatment modality with a minimal side-effect profile.
膀胱黏膜相关淋巴组织（MALT）淋巴瘤的表现极为罕见。此外，局限于膀胱的原发性MALT淋巴瘤的最佳治疗方法仍有待确定。在此，我们报告一例65岁女性原发性MALT淋巴瘤患者接受根治性放射治疗的病例。患者膀胱接受了总量30 Gy、分20次每日等量照射，对治疗耐受性良好。此外，我们广泛查阅了相关文献，以更好地确定这种罕见疾病的最佳治疗方案。总之，膀胱原发性MALT淋巴瘤是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤，若早期发现预后良好。对于早期疾病，根治性放疗是一种极佳的治疗方式，副作用极小。
