[Is immunosuppressor treatment effective in lymphocytic gastritis? Apropos of a case associated with an intestinal lymphoma].
We report the case of a patient with "lymphocytic gastritis" surprisingly associated with an intestinal lymphoma which was treated after intestinal resection by corticosteroids and a combination of antimitotic agents. Comparing gastric mucosa before and 3 months after therapy, we observed a striking reduction of inflammation. Such a case suggests the possibility of a beneficial effect of immunosuppressive therapy on "lymphocytic gastritis" and favors the hypothesis of an immunological disorder.
