Abstrakt: Lymphoma occurring in the post-operative stomach would appear to be very rare with only five previously recorded cases. In three of these, focal lymphoid hyperplasia or pseudolymphoma had been found at the time of the original ulcer surgery, or at subsequent biopsies of the gastric stump or anastomotic sites. These latter three cases developed lymphoma within 11 years of the ulcer surgery as against the 20 years or longer generally found in cases of gastric stump carcinoma. Two cases presenting with gastric stump lymphoma approximately 20 years after Billroth 2 partial gastrectomy are reported. In neither of these two cases, nor in the other two patients previously recorded with post-operative gastric lymphoma 20 or more years following gastric surgery, was luminal focal lymphoid hyperplasia reported at the time of the original gastric surgery. It is postulated that these two small groups may have developed lymphoma due to differing malignant stimuli.
