Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and Helicobacter pylori (H.pyori) infection retrospectively. Methods The paraffin embedded samples of the tumors in gastric intestinal tract and its corresponding normal tissues from 35 patients with non Hondgkin's lymphomas in gastric intestinal tract were sectioned. The slides, except routine histopathologic study, were submitted to immuno histochemical staining (CD 3,CD 5,CD 10 ,CD 20 ,C 23 ,CD 45 RO, kappa, lamda, cyclin, Ki67, TUNEL) and to HE staining for the detection of H. pylori infection. Results ①Twenty one cases were identified to be MALT lymphomas according to the results of immunohistochemical staining, of them 16 cases were gastric MALT lymphomas, 1 case of intestinal MALT lymphoma, and 4 cases of colonic MALT lymphomas. ② H. pylori infection in gastric MALT lymphoma was 100% except in 3 cases who had only tumor tissues, which could not be evaluated. ③ Two cases were stage Ⅰ 1 gastric MALT lymphomas, 5 were stage Ⅱ 1,and 9 were stage Ⅱ E. ④ Only 6 cases had recognized as gastric MALT lymphomas by endoscopy and biopsy. Three patients were misdiagnosed as gastric cancer, 1 as M?n?trier disease, 1 as atrophic gastritis, and 5 as chronic gastritis endoscopiclly. ⑤ One patient got a complete regression after 3 courses of anti H. pylori therapy and was in good health after 3 years of the treatment. Conclusions ① A close relation was present between H.pyloi infection and gastric MALT lymphoma. ② Early gastric MALT lymphoma may regress after eradication of H.pylori.
