“…In all described cases, the primary upper urinary tract MALT lymphomas were unilateral [5-14]. As well as in our patient, in 3 previously described observations, MALT lymphomas had a locally advanced growth with involvement of the renal pelvis, sinus, and paraureteral tissue [9, 12, 14]. In our case, a patient with the advanced primary tumor developed metastases in three retroperitoneal lymph nodes.…”

“…MALT lymphoma is an indolent tumor that remains localized for a long time. In all described cases, the primary upper urinary tract MALT lymphomas were unilateral [5-14].

“…In the available literature, we found a description of 10 clinical cases of morphoimmunohistochemically confirmed MALT lymphomas localized in the renal pelvis (n 7) or the ureter (n 3) (Table 1) [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Most of the patients were men aged 30-77 years without a pre-existing urinary infection [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. In our case, the patient suffered from urolithiasis.…”

“…Other authors described cases of MALT lymphoma dissemination, including 2 patients with a primary tumor of the kidney pelvis. Interestingly, in 1 case, the peripheral lymph nodes were affected [14], and in the other, the renal pelvis MALT lymphoma was combined with a lesion of more typical for this type of extranodal marginal zone lymphomas localization in salivary gland and prostate involvement [5]. In 10% of cases, MALT lymphoma can transform into aggressive B-cell lymphoma, but such cases have not been described in primary lesions of the upper urinary tract [15].…”

“…In our case, a patient with the advanced primary tumor developed metastases in three retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Regional metastasizing was also revealed in 3 out of 10 patients described in the literature, including 1 case with metastatic lymphoma [11,12,14]. Bone marrow involvement, which is registered in approximately 20% of cases with MALT lymphomas of other sites, has been diagnosed in no patient with primary tumor of the upper urinary tract [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

Lymphomas account for approximately 5% of nonurothelial tumors of the urinary tract and develop in the bladder in 90% of cases. The most common lymphomas histologic type of this location is extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). MALT lymphoma of the upper urinary tract is casuistically rare. The current study describes a case of a 74-year-old female patient with MALT lymphoma of the renal pelvis with metastases to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes who underwent radical surgical treatment with subsequent follow-up.

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma (ML) is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma involving MALT, commonly the stomach or salivary glands, although virtually any mucosal site can be affected. ML originates from B cells in the marginal zone of MALT, and is also called extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma. It is a slow-growing cancer that usually responds well to treatment. A 59-year-old female presented with a 1-day history of quadriparesis and dysarthria. Up arrival at the hospital, motor power in the right upper and lower extremities was grade 3/5 according to the Medical Research Council scale, while that in the left leg was 4/5. The patient had been diagnosed with gastric ML 1 year prior, and had received antibiotics during the previous 2 weeks. The emergency magnetic resonance imaging of the brain performed at the time of presentation showed multifocal embolic infarction in the cerebral hemisphere bilaterally, which did not have a cardiac origin. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed no stenotic or occlusive lesions. Secondary prophylaxis with daily administration of 300 mg aspirin was prescribed. The patient was discharged with residual right hemiparesis 2 weeks after the onset of symptoms. Herein, we present a rare case of multifocal cerebral infarction in a gastric ML patient.
