Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the appendix and distal ileum. A rare case report

摘要

Primary gastrointestinal (GI) tract lymphomas constitute 1–4 of all GI malignancies. Primary lymphomas of appendix are even more rare and are seen in 0.015 of all appendicectomy specimens. Here, we report a rare case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma tumours in the appendix and distal ileum in a non-immune compromised young male patient who presented with intermittent intussusception and pain in the right iliac fossa. A laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed and the patient recovered uneventfully. Adjuvant chemotherapy (CHOP) in the form of CHOP regimen has been further advised.
