The patient was a 73-year-old woman with hematemesis, who was brought to our hospital by an ambulance. Emergency upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed, and a thickened wall and multiple ulcers were noted in the middle- lower region of the stomach body. The biopsy revealed gastric cancer (por), and the macroscopic depth of invasion was up to the subserosal layer. Multiple white granular protruding lesions were observed in the duodenal bulb and were diagnosed as follicular lymphoma by biopsy. As follicular lymphoma generally takes a long time to progress in many cases, the vital prognosis would be determined by the gastric cancer. Thus, total gastrectomy was performed for gastric cancer. For reconstruction, the double-tract method was used. Duodenal follicular lymphoma was continuously monitored by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Here, we describe the case of a patient with a complication of follicular lymphoma arising from duodenal and gastric cancer, which is very rare, and report this case along with a literature review.

Tumour 'bulk' has historically been considered an important prognostic marker and clinical tool to guide treatment in patients with lymphoma. However, its use and definitions in trial designs varies significantly and it is unclear how this has influenced the relevance of bulk in contemporary practice. This comprehensive literature review evaluated the definitions, applications and prognostic impact of bulk in phase 3 randomised trials in four major lymphoma subtypes.

The role of Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcers and gastric adenocarcinoma is widely known; however, it is not entirely understood how bacterial infection is closely related to the genesis of follicular gastritis and some types of gastric lymphoma. Diagnosing and pathogenic mechanisms follicular gastritis remain challenging. Therefore, this article aims to examine the role of H.

Primary pulmonary lymphoma (PPL) is a rare entity often underdiagnosed due to its non-specific clinical presentation. Our aim is to share our experience in the management of these lesions, which should be considered in the differential diagnosis of nodules affecting the lung parenchyma. We retrospectively studied a total of 14 patients who had undergone surgery between 2013 and 2021.

The rapid emergence of CD20-targeting T-cell engagers in follicular lymphoma and large B-cell lymphoma has further expanded the treatment options for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Herein, we review and discuss the standard-of-care products and indications for mosunetuzumab, epcoritamab, and glofitamab. We provide a detailed overview of the registrational clinical trials, as well as a review of ongoing trials and likely future indications.

The role of ubiquitin-mediated degradation mechanisms in the pathogenesis of diffuse large B cell (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL) is not completely understood. We show that conditional deletion of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Fbxo45 in germinal center B-cells results in B-cell lymphomagenesis in homozygous (100%) and heterozygous (48%) mice. Mechanistically, FBXO45 targets the RHO guanine exchange factor ARHGEF2/GEF-H1 for ubiquitin-mediated degradation.
