[Experience with results of treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma].
Thirty primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated between 1983-1990 were reviewed to reveal the efficacy of various treatment strategies. The average age at the diagnosis 53.6 (18-76) years. The histologic material were evaluated according to the Kiel classification: 22 patients had high grade malignant lymphoma (centroblastoma 8, immunoblastoma 6, lymphoblastoma 2, non classifiable 5, T-cell lymphoma 1) 8 patients low grade malignant lymphoma (lymphocytic 2, immunocytic 2, MALT lymphoma 1, centrocytoma 1, non-classifiable 1, pleomorph small cell lymphoma 1). 21 were primary gastric lymphoma, 5 involved the small intestine, 2 the ileocecal region, and 2 the large intestine. According to the Ann Arbor staging system 7 patients were stage I/E, 16 patients stage II/E, 5 patients stage III/E and 2 patients stage IV/E. Every patients underwent surgical resection. After surgical treatment high grade malignancies were treated with ProMACE-COPP (9) and CHOP-Bleo (10) polychemotherapy; low grade malignancies received VEP (5) and CVP (3) chemotherapy. 23 of 30 patients achived complete remission. The patients with low grade malignancy are in remission. All but one patients with high grade malignant gastric lymphoma achieved complete remission with a median of 37 (3-81) months relapse-free survival. Out of 5 cases in the small intestine only in 1 case was remission achieved. Histological type (Kiel) and surgical resection were the most important prognostic factors.
