“…To the best of our knowledge, 113 cases of primary hepatic MALT lymphoma have been reported in 71 articles to date, 7 – 37 of which 80 cases (including our case) had relatively detailed clinical data ( Table 1 ). Among the patients in these 113 cases, 43 patients were men (38%) and 48 were women (42%) (the sex was not indicated in the remaining cases), with an age range of 30 to 89 years and a median age of 63.5 years.…”

Primary hepatic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an extremely rare liver malignancy that usually lacks characteristic imaging findings and which is often misdiagnosed. We report a 63-year-old woman diagnosed with primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma, MALT type. The patient underwent needle biopsy and radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and showed no signs of relapse during the 12-month postoperative follow-up. This case stresses the rarity of primary hepatic MALT-type lymphoma and the unique and effective treatment for this patient. Our patient received RFA, which showed good efficacy and which provides a new option for the treatment of hepatic MALT lymphoma. We also present our findings from a systematic review to improve the current understanding of this disease.

“…Primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT is a very rare neoplasm [6,31], histologically confirmed in only 3% of non-gastric MALT lymphoma patients [6]. Due to its scarcity, little is known on the epidemiology, clinical features, radiological investigation, and optimal treatment of this condition, as summarized in Table 2 [7,29]. Since there are few reported cases of hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT that include CEUS findings [32,33], the entity's typical CEUS characteristics have not yet been defined.…”

“…Primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT is a rare subtype of hepatic malignant lymphoma [ 7 ], the incidence of which is low [ 6 , 8 ]. Although the etiology of primary hepatic MALT lymphoma remains unknown, cases with such accompanying chronic liver conditions as hepatitis B virus (HBV) [ 7 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ], HCV [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ], alcohol liver disease [ 24 ], non-alcoholic steatohepatitis [ 25 ], primary biliary cholangitis [ 26 , 27 ], and autoimmune hepatitis [ 28 , 29 ] have implicated chronic inflammation in disease development. Histological liver assessment is required for the accurate diagnosis of primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT.…”

Primary Hepatic Extranodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma of Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue in a Patient with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection: Case Report and Summary of the Literature

Background: The incidence of extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is low, at 7–8% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases. The most common site of MALT lymphoma occurrence is the stomach. Primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT is classified as a type of non-gastric MALT lymphoma and is considered extremely rare, with no consensus on imaging study findings or treatment due to a limited number of reports. We herein describe a rare case of primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT with underlying hepatitis B infection (HBV) and present useful diagnostic findings of various imaging modalities, including contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) with Sonazoid. Case presentation: A 66-year-old woman was diagnosed as being a non-active carrier of HBV at 51 years of age at the time of total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy for uterine cervical cancer. She was admitted to our hospital following the incidental detection of two focal liver lesions on computed tomography. The lesions were considered malignant based on clinical and other radiologic imaging findings. Her CEUS results of hypo-enhancement in the portal and late phases were consistent with those of previously reported cases of hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT, and histological liver biopsy findings were compatible with the diagnosis. Conclusions: Primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT is a rare condition that can appear in HBV carriers. Characteristic CEUS findings may help in disease diagnosis. Clinicians should bear primary hepatic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of MALT in mind when encountering patients with focal liver lesions which exhibit image findings different from those of typical hepatocellular carcinoma.

“…Primary hepatic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is relatively rare, accounting for only 2-4% of primary hepatic lymphomas [1]. Patients usually have no special clinical symptoms, and most of the cases are incidentally found during the imaging examination of surgery or follow-up observation of liver-related diseases.…”
