title: [Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma as a cause of intestinal obstruction in school-age children].
abstract: Between 1972 and 1988, twenty-four children with abdominal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) were treated. Five children between 6 and 12 years old had intestinal obstruction due to mesenteric-intestinal mass of the NHL class. We report clinical and morphological features, emphasizing the importance of radical surgery from the therapeutic and prognostic points of view these resectable abdominal forms.
