Lymphoma in the gastrointestinal tract most commonly occurs in the stomach, small intestine and around the ileocecal region. Usually gastrointestinal lymphoma occurs secondary to widespread nodal disease and is rarely found to be the primary site. Of the different types of lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma makes up the majority of lymphomas in the gastrointestinal tract. Primary colorectal lymphoma is even less common and accounts for 3% of all gastrointestinal lymphomas and to our knowledge, gastrointestinal lymphoma involving 2 different regions in the GI tract has not been discussed in the literature. Herein, we are presenting a rare case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma presenting as a malignant mass in both the duodenum and ascending colon.
胃肠道淋巴瘤最常发生于胃、小肠及回盲部周围。胃肠道淋巴瘤通常继发于广泛的淋巴结疾病,很少发现是原发部位。在不同类型的淋巴瘤中,弥漫性大B细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤占胃肠道淋巴瘤的大多数。原发性结直肠淋巴瘤更为少见,占所有胃肠道淋巴瘤的3%,据我们所知,文献中尚未讨论过累及胃肠道2个不同区域的胃肠道淋巴瘤。在此,我们报告1例罕见的弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤,表现为十二指肠和升结肠的恶性肿块。
