Rationale: The common CT scan findings of pulmonary MZBL of MALT type include airspace consolidation, nodules and ground-glass opacity. But, to our knowledge, the present case is the first report of a cavity presentation of pulmonary MZBL of MALT type.
Patient Concerns: The patient gives his consent and authorizes the photographs featuring his likeness to be published.
Diagnoses: This patient was diagnosed as pulmonary MZBL of MALT type by pathology, immunohistochemistry, and gene rearrangement.
Interventions: The patient was treated with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine and prednisone) chemotherapy for twice and antibiotics.
Outcomes: He is being followed up for one year, with slight progress in pulmonary MZBL of MALT.
Lessons: This case highlights the need to be suspicious of MZBL of MALT type, when a radiographic image shows cavity lesion. We should consider whether the diagnosis is correct, when the patient's treatment is not effective.

To explore the clinical features of patients with synchronous lymphoma and carcinoma. The clinical data of 17 patients with Synchronous lymphoma and carcinoma from February 2012 to October 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Among 17 patients of lymphoma, 1 case HL, 2 cases B-NHL, 6 cases MZBL, 3 cases DLBCL, 1 case mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) , 3 cases NK/T- cell lymphoma, 1 case anaplastic large cell lymphoma(ALCL).

Aims: Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL) rarely coexists as composite lymphoma with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL). We characterized 12 cases of composite marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZBL) and cHL by immunohistochemistry and molecular biology.
Methods And Results: Eight patients had gastric MZBL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)-type, in five cases with a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma component.
