title: [Primary extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the stomach. Value of surgery within the scope of a multimodality treatment concept].
abstract: The clinical course of 22 patients was analyzed in a retrospective study; all of these were suffering from malignant lymphoma of the stomach and most underwent radical resection as the only therapeutic measure. A unrelated effect on the survival rate was found in a high-grade malignancy metastatic disease of celiac lymph nodes (stage II2E) and tumor size. On the basis of the presented data we assume that low-grade malignant lymphomas stages IE can be cured by radical resection. In stage II1E and II2E we recommend multi-disciplinary treatment strategy with radical resection followed by radiation therapy in low-grade malignancy or chemotherapy in high-grade malignancy.
