Both patients were underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy with no presenting symptom, and detected multiple whitish granular lesions in the second portion of the duodenum. They are diagnosed histologically by the biopsy specimen from the lesions. Patients were staged according to the Lugano staging system for gastrointestinal lymphomas. One patient had stage II2 disease and she underwent 3 course of chemotherapy including the administration of rituximab (RCHOP). She achieved complete response and has been found to have no evidence of disease. The other patient had stageIdisease and has been clinically followed. She are alive without disease progression.
