A 61-year-old male presented with hematemesis and melena. Biopsy and immunohistochemistry confirmed mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in the posterior wall of the gastric antrum, prompting further evaluation with F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). In addition to elevated uptake in the gastric antrum, F-FDG PET/CT showed diffuse uptake in multiple bone marrow, initially suspected to indicate bone marrow involvement by lymphoma.

Gastric cancer (GC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with gastrectomy being the primary treatment option. Sepsis, a systemic inflammatory response to infection, may influence tumor growth by creating an immunosuppressive environment conducive to cancer cell proliferation and metastasis. Here, the effect of abdominal infection on tumor growth and metastasis was investigated through the implementation of a peritoneal metastasis model and a subcutaneous tumor model.
