Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is predominantly found in the stomach. Rarely, it is found in the proximal colon and even less so in the sigmoid colon. We present a rare case of primary sigmoid colon MALT lymphoma in a patient with concomitant and hepatitis C infection. We also review current imaging, staging, and therapeutic modalities. To our knowledge, this is the first sigmoid colon MALT lymphoma reported in the United States.
黏膜相关淋巴组织（MALT）淋巴瘤主要见于胃部。罕见情况下，可发生于近端结肠，而在乙状结肠更为少见。我们报告一例原发性乙状结肠MALT淋巴瘤患者，该患者同时合并丙型肝炎感染。我们还回顾了当前的影像学、分期及治疗方式。据我们所知，这是美国报道的首例乙状结肠MALT淋巴瘤。
