We herein report an 80-year-old man diagnosed with immunoproliferative small intestine disease (IPSID) via small bowel endoscopy with a biopsy. He developed persistent diarrhea and subsequently presented with hypoproteinemia and moderate anemia. Transanal double-balloon endoscopy showed prominent villous edema in the middle and lower ileum, while a histological examination showed high lymphocyte/plasma cell infiltration in the mucosal layer. Furthermore, an immunostaining analysis showed that Cluster of differentiation (CD) 3 and CD20 were partially positive, while CD138 was diffusely positive. Immunoglobulin A positivity was also observed. He was diagnosed with IPSID and received a nutritional agent and minocycline. After three months, the patients' symptoms improved.

Immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID) is an uncommon disease of the small intestine. There is a similarity in the clinical presentations of enteropathic diseases, including celiac disease, tropical sprue, IPSID, and Whipple's disease. A differentiation between them is based on the use of a highly specific serological test for celiac disease and specific histological characteristics.

Immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID) is an uncommon disease with a higher prevalence in the developing world. IPSID diagnosis relies mainly on a tissue biopsy and a high index of suspicion. Treatment options are variable; however, they mainly include anthracycline-based chemotherapy with or without antibiotics in advanced stages.

Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) typically arises from sites such as the stomach, where there is no organized lymphoid tissue. Close associations between and gastric MALT lymphoma or and immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID) have been established. A subset of tumors is associated with chromosomal rearrangement and/or genetic alterations.
