“…Ileum and ileocecal regions are commonly involved in PIL (6.9–37.1%) probably due to high density of lymphoid tissue in these areas. 21 – 24 Ileocecal region was the most common site involved in our study accounting for 27% of the cases followed by duodenum and colon 25% each and the rest in ileum, jejunum, and multiple sites. Majority of the patients who underwent surgery are those where ileum and ileocecal regions were involved.…”

A bstract Introduction Gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the most common site of extranodal lymphoma accounting for 30–40% of the cases. In Western countries, stomach is the most common site of GI lymphoma, whereas in the Middle East and Mediterranean countries, small intestine is commonly involved. Studies about primary intestinal lymphoma (PIL) are heterogeneous in anatomical distribution, presentation, and histological subtypes. The present study was aimed at studying the anatomical distribution, histological subtypes, and clinical characteristics at tertiary care centers. Materials and methods The present study was retrospective, conducted between 2006 and 2020. Patient's data were collected from institutional medical records. PIL was diagnosed by Lewin's criteria. After histological diagnosis, PIL was classified as per the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria and staging was done according to the Ann Arbor classification as modified by Musshoff. Results A total of 941 lymphoma cases were diagnosed during the study period between 2006 and 2020 consisting of 238 Hodgkin's lymphoma and 703 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) cases. PIL constituted 5.8% of all lymphoma cases (55 out of 941) and 50.9% (55 of 108) of all primary GI lymphoma. Median age at diagnosis was 44 years and comprised predominantly males (85.45%). Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma were the most common histological subtype (78%) seen. Two patients with primary Hodgkin's lymphoma involving the intestine were seen. T-cell lymphoma was seen in three (5.4%) patients. Ileocecal region was the most common site involved (27%). The common presenting complaints were intestinal obstruction (40%) requiring surgical resection and abdominal pain (32%). Majority of the patients presented in the early stages (I and II). Conclusion Our study demonstrates the pattern of distribution and various histological subtypes of PIL including the rare variants like primary intestinal Hodgkin's lymphoma. Relatively more number of patients presented with intestinal obstruction requiring surgery in comparison with other studies. How to cite this article Malipatel R, Patil M, Rout P, et al .

“…B-cell lymphoma of the colon is one of the commonest malignancies of the colon, after carcinoma and carcinoid, though its incidence is rare at less than 0.5% [5]. Owing to its anatomical location, ileocecal lymphomas mostly present with complications, such as intestinal obstruction, which mandates surgical intervention on an emergency basis [6][7][8].…”

Primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are rare tumors which account for about 0.9% of all gastrointestinal tract tumors. They are usually associated with inflammatory bowel disease, previous radiotherapy, and renal transplantation. We report a case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma involving the ileocecal region in a 46-year-old gentleman who presented with acute abdominal pain that mandated emergency laparotomy.
