Coexisting malignant lymphoma of the duodenum and adenocarcinoma of the colon.
Synchronous malignant mucosa associated lymphoid tissue MALT-lymphoma of the small bowel and adenocarcinoma of the colon in the same patient is a scarce rarity. Only few cases have been reported so far. Thus, it might be of interest to report such a case of coexisting malignant MALT-lymphoma of the duodenum and adenocarcinoma of the large bowel.
