摘要

Natural killer T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) was classified as a distinct entity in the World Health Organization classification of tumors of hematopoie-tic and lymphoid tissues in both 2001 and 2008 [1]. The upper respiratory tract is the most commonly involved site and involvement of gastrointestinal tract is rare. Here, we report a case of primary gastric NKTCL, with a brief review of the literature.
