[Primary gastric lymphoma. 14 clinical cases].
Fourteen patients affected by primary gastric lymphoma were observed retrospectively to verify the results of surgical and adjuvant chemotherapy. After a 85% preoperative diagnostic specificity, 79% of patients were subjected to surgical therapy by subtotal gastrectomy (93%) and by total gastrectomy (7%), and 64% of patients were subjected to adjuvant chemotherapy in conformity with CHOP and CVP. Classified by the Working formulation, 57% of cases presented a high grade of malignancy, 29% a low grade and 14% an intermediate grade. Classified by Ann Arbor with Mushoff's modification, 43% of patients were assigned to stage IIE1, 36% to stage IE, 14% to stage IIE2 and 7% to stage IIIE. Operative mortality was null. The overall median survival have been of 21 months, while surgical and chemotherapeutical median survival reached 32 months. The 5-year actuarial survival was: 10% (overall), 14% (treated patients), 50% (low grade), 33% (stage IE). With negative influence by istology and staging.
