Abstract:
This article is to report 32 pathologically proved cases of primary non-Hodg-kin's malignant lymphoma of the gastrointestinal tract including 9 cases in the stomach, 10 in the small intestines, 9 in the ileocecal region, and 4 in the large intestines. 22 patients were male and 10 female. The highest incidence occurred in the age group from 20 to 30- The main symptoms are abdominal pain( 30/32), intraabdominal mass (14/32), vomiting(6/32), and gastrointestinal bleeding (5/32).All the cases except one were of the diffuse type histologically. Analysis of the follow-up data of 24 cases found that the infiltration of the tumor cells into the deeper layers of the gastrointestinal walls and the occurrence of tumors in the small and large intestines were usually associated with poor prognosis. The criteria of diagnosis and differential diagnosis of this disease were briefly discussed.
