Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) is vital for host immunological surveillance against pathogens. MALT lymphoma, also known as extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma, is a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma subtype that predominantly arises in the gastrointestinal tract. Chronic infection is a common cause of gastric MALT lymphoma, although other infections are reported in association with extragastric MALT lymphomas. To our knowledge, here we report the first case of synchronous MALT lymphomas of the colon and stomach in the presence of and infections that resolved after eradication of both organisms.
黏膜相关淋巴组织(MALT)对于宿主针对病原体的免疫监视至关重要。MALT淋巴瘤,也称为结外边缘区B细胞淋巴瘤,是一种非霍奇金淋巴瘤亚型,主要发生在胃肠道。慢性感染是胃MALT淋巴瘤的常见病因,尽管也有其他感染与胃外MALT淋巴瘤相关的报道。据我们所知,我们在此报告首例同时发生结肠和胃MALT淋巴瘤的病例,该病例存在 和 感染,在根除这两种病原体后病情得到缓解。
