Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T cell lymphoma (MEITL), which used to be known as type 2 enteropathy-associated T cell lymphoma, is a rare lymphoma and is generally treated with chemotherapy. However, the MEITL prognosis is poor, and intestinal lymphoma including MEITL has the risk of bowel perforation not only at presentation but also during chemotherapy. A 67-year-old man was diagnosed with MEITL after presenting in our emergency room with bowel perforation.

Malignant pulmonary lymphoma is very rare and the majority of which are B-cell lymphomas. Since primary pulmonary extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL) is difficult to diagnose and associated with poor prognosis and aggressive course, some cases are diagnosed at the postmortem autopsy. We report a case of a 53-year-old man with primary pulmonary ENKL diagnosed by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lung biopsy.

Spindle cell/pleomorphic lipomas (SCLs), cellular angiofibromas (CAFs) and mammary-type myofibroblastomas (MFBs) are rare benign mesenchymal tumors with monoallelic 13q14 deletion. They are predicted to have a common pathogenic mechanism due to shared similar histological and immunohistochemical features; however, pathological consequences of monoallelic 13q14 deletion remain unknown. We previously reported a CAF case with monoallelic 13q14 deletion in which the tumor expressed decreased levels of FOXO1 and RB1, both of which were encoded in 13q14, and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels.
