A 60-year-old Japanese woman was diagnosed with celiac disease (CeD) and treated with a gluten-free diet. For five years, she had a good clinical course. However, she complained of inappetence and nausea. Colonoscopy revealed ulcerative tumors in the terminal ileum. A histological examination of biopsy specimens from the ulcerative tumor showed diffuse infiltration of large atypical lymphocytes. Immunohistologically, the atypical lymphoid cells were positive for cluster of differentiation (CD) 10 and CD20. Many Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER)-positive atypical lymphocytes were detected by in situ hybridization. This represents the first reported case of Epstein-Barr virus-positive intestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma complicated with CeD.
一位 60 岁的日本女性被诊断患有乳糜泻(CeD),并接受了无麸质饮食治疗。五年来,她的临床病程良好。然而,她主诉食欲不振和恶心。结肠镜检查显示末端回肠有溃疡性肿瘤。对溃疡性肿瘤活检标本的组织学检查显示,大异型淋巴细胞弥漫浸润。免疫组织化学检查显示,异型淋巴细胞 CD10 和 CD20 阳性。原位杂交检测到许多 Epstein-Barr 病毒编码的小 RNA(EBER)阳性异型淋巴细胞。这是首例报道的伴有 CeD 的 Epstein-Barr 病毒阳性肠弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤病例。
