“…This case report is one of the first presenting a rare combination of BL of the ileum and nodular lymphoid hyperplasia (NLH), probably due to selective IgA deficiency [5]. NLH is a condition characterized with numerous small nodules diffusely distributed along the segments of the GI tract, histologically evaluated as reactive follicular hyperplasia [6].…”

“…7,8 There are also some reports that the lesion can be a risk factor for intestinal lymphoma or, very rarely, for extraintestinal lymphoma. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Therefore, since lymphoid hyperplasia may indicate risks for lymphoma, some researchers recommend surveillance of the lesion. 21 However, no guideline has been established for the follow-up and management on the lesion.…”

“…La hiperplasia nodular linfoide se considera un factor de riesgo para el desarrollo de linfoma intestinal (28,29) y extraintestinal (30,31), adenomas y carcinomas (32), por lo que algunos autores recomiendan series baritadas y cápsulas endoscópicas seriadas (24), aunque la duración y los intervalos de dicha vigilancia no están definidos (15). No existen estudios previos que evalúen la validez diagnóstica del hallazgo de nódulos durante la colonoscopia al compararlo con la histología en el diagnóstico de hiperplasia nodular linfoide.…”
