Abstrakt: | Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that is typically characterized by a slow-growing course. Duodenal-type follicular lymphoma (D-FL) was recently reclassified as a distinct variant. This subtype exhibits unique clinical and biological characteristics, which set it apart from other forms of FL. We report a case of a 36-year-old male patient with multiple, small, gray polypoid lesions in the descending duodenum which were detected by esophagogastroduodenoscopy. The pathological diagnosis was low-grade D-FL. 18 F-FDG PET/CT was performed for staging and revealed the pancreas and peripheral lymph nodes were involved by FL, with a clinical IV stage. The patient underwent a bone marrow smear cytology, which revealed no bone marrow abnormalities, and excluded bone marrow involvement. He was treated with six cycles of chemotherapy using the R-CHOP regimen and reached complete remission. Competing Interests: None. (AJNMMI Copyright © 2023.) |
