Primary Low-grade B-cell Lymphoma of Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT)-type of the Liver in a Patient with Hepatitis C Virus Infection

Abstract: We report a case of primary low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)-type of the liver presenting as a solitary mass in a patient with hepatitis C virus infection. A 73-year-old male was referred to our hospital because of a solitary mass in the liver, which was identified by ultrasonography during a routine follow-up study for his hepatitis C virus carrier status.

“…MALT lymphomas account for approximately 7% to 8% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas (9). Cases of hepatic MALT lymphoma with HCV infection have been reported, but cases without HCV infection have also been reported (10)(11)(12)(13)(14). Whether HCV infection can lead to hepatic MALT lymphoma or not remains unclear.…”

Dans 11 observations les patients ont une maladie inflammatoire chronique hépatique à type de cirrhose biliaire primitive (trois cas) [10,13,14], d'hépatite C (six cas) [5,11,12,17], d'hépatite B (deux cas) [9,18], d'hépatite chronique active (un cas) [3] ou d'hépatite parasitaire à Ascaris [8].…”
