Gastrobronchial fistula in untreated lymphoma.
A 48-year-old man with B-cell lymphoma of the stomach was seen with recurrent pneumonia, weight loss, and anorexia. A barium study revealed a large malignant gastric ulcer with a gastrobronchial fistula. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen showed a gastric neoplasm invading the left lower lobe of the lung and the spleen.
