“…The concept of MALT lymphoma was proposed by Isaacson and Wright in 1983, 6 and the first report of a case arising in the bladder was in 1990 7 ; however, the similarity of some bladder lymphomas to lymphoid lesions in the stomach had been noted even before MALT lymphoma was described. 8 Since 1990, 14 other cases of primary MALT-type lymphoma of the bladder have been published.…”

Aim-To report the clinical and histological features and outcome of primary and secondary malignant lymphomas of the urinary bladder. Methods-Eleven cases of malignant lymphoma of the urinary bladder were obtained from the registry of cases at St Bartholomews and the Royal London Hospitals. The lymphomas were classified on the basis of their morphology and immunophenotype, and the clinical records were reviewed. Results-There were six primary lymphomas: three extranodal marginal zone lymphomas of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type and three diVuse large B cell lymphomas. Of the five secondary cases, four were diVuse large B cell lymphomas, one secondary to a systemic follicular follicle centre lymphoma, and one nodular sclerosis Hodgkins disease. Four patients with secondary lymphoma for whom follow up was available had died of disease within 13 months of diagnosis. Primary lymphomas followed a more indolent course. In one case, there was evidence of transformation from low grade MALT-type to diVuse large B cell lymphoma. The most common presenting symptom was haematuria. Cystoscopic appearances were of solid, sometimes necrotic tumours resembling transitional cell carcinoma, and in one case the tumours were multiple. These cases represented 0.2% of all bladder neoplasms. Conclusions-DiVuse large B cell lymphoma and MALT-type lymphoma are the most common primary malignant lymphomas of the bladder. Lymphoepithelial lesions in MALT-type lymphoma involve transitional epithelium, and their presence in high grade lymphoma suggests a primary origin owing to transformation of low grade MALT-type lymphoma. Primary and secondary diffuse large B cell lymphomas of the bladder are histologically similar, but the prognosis of the former is favourable. (J Clin Pathol 2000;53:458-461)

“…The incidence of secondary involvement of the urinary bladder in lymphoma is about 13% 7) . However, primary involvement presents 0.2% of all urinary bladder lymphomas 2) . Because of its rarity, limited clinicopathologic data are available and result from singlecase observations or small series.…”

“…After more than 20 years of clinical research, MALT lymphomas are now recognized as a distinct subtype of nonHodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). MALT lymphoma of the urinary bladder was first described in 1990 2) . Management has been guided by retrospective clinical studies because primary lymphoma of the urinary bladder is rare.…”

Primary low-grade lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type lymphoma of the bladder is rare. A relationship between MALT lymphoma of the urinary bladder and chronic cystitis has been proposed by some reports. Additionally a relationship between MALT lymphoma of the urinary bladder and Helicobacter pylori has been reported. Here we present a case of regression of urinary bladder MALT lymphoma after antibiotic therapy, using H. pylori eradication protocol in an elderly patient, who had a high risk of treatment related mortality in curative systemic chemotherapy. The patient is a 74-year-old woman who had a history of chronic cystitis. She was diagnosed with stage IIA primary MALT lymphoma of the urinary bladder and was treated with H. pylori eradication triple therapy for 2 weeks. After 2 months, there was a marked regression of the bladder MALT lymphoma lesion in a computed tomography scan of the abdomen.
