Abstract

We report cases of gastric mucosa-assisted lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma caused by Non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter (NHPH). Case 1: A male in his 60s underwent an endoscopic examination that revealed a faded depressed surface in the hypogastric fold. Histological analysis established a diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. PCR test was positive for H. heilmannii (s. s.) and negative for H. pylori. Endoscopic findings improved with eradication, and the histology of MALT lymphoma disappeared. Case 2: A 60s woman was diagnosed with gastric MALT lymphoma. PCR test was positive for H. suis and negative for H. pylori. Endoscopic findings did not resolve the MALT lymphoma findings after eradication. The addition of radiotherapy resulted in the disappearance of both endoscopic and histological findings of MALT lymphoma.
