Non-polypoidal, synchronous mantle-cell lymphoma of small intestine: a rare case.
Herein is reported the case of a mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) with synchronous double intestinal location. A 74-year old male presented with mild abdominal pain. CT scan imaging indicated invasion of lateral intestinal cavity by large mass formation. Exploratory laparotomy was performed and two solid extra-mural masses were isolated and excised. Histology revealed non-polypoid double synchronous lymphoma of mantle cell origin, an unusual presentation of the disease.
