[Malignant lymphoma on a gastric stump].
We report a case of lymphoplasmocytic and immunoblastic gastric remnant lymphoma occurring in a 51 year-old male. This patient had undergone subtotal gastrectomy for a gastric peptic ulcer at age 37. Histologic findings in the initial gastric specimen showed a dense lymphoid infiltrate surrounding the ulcer within the gastric mucosa. This proliferation was grouped into distinct follicles, and was compatible with pseudo-lymphoma. The progression of pseudo-lymphoma to malignant lymphoma is suggested.
