Abstract

A case of primary lymphoma of the duodenum is presented. A 67-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of an epigastralgia and tarry stools. We recognized anemia at his blood test. Upper GI endscopic examination showed an ulcerative lesion at the duodenal second portion. Biopsy specimen yielded the findings suggestive of malignant lymphoma. Pancreaticoduodenectomy with Imanaga method repair was carried out. Histologic examinasion of the duodenal lesion revealed non Hodgkin lymphoma, diffuse large cell type. A complete remission was attained after the operation. There has been no sign of recurrence of the lymphoma for these five months. We are going to add chemotherapy to him.
