| Popis: | Rationale: API2-MALT1 positive gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are considered to have favorable prognosis. We report a case of API2-MALT1 positive gastric MALT lymphoma, treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Patient concerns: A 51-year-old man underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) for the annual health checkup examination. Diagnoses: The EGD showed a reddish depressed lesion with small reddish spots in the lower gastric body. There was no endoscopic atrophy in the entire stomach and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) serum test was negative. Infiltration of small lymphocytes was shown in the gastric tissues obtained by the endoscopic biopsy. The fluorescence in situ hybridization using the biopsy samples confirmed the presence of genetic translocation of API2-MALT1, suggesting that the lesion is API2-MALT1 positive MALT lymphoma. Interventions: Since endoscopic ultrasound suggested that the lesion was localized within the lamina propria mucosae, we performed ESD to achieve the en bloc resection of the lesion. Outcomes: Conclusive diagnosis of gastric MALT lymphoma was made based on the resected specimen. Lateral and vertical margins were negative. No lymphoma cells were detected using endoscopic biopsy after 5 years. Lessons: Our report suggests that ESD can be considered as alternative treatment for API2-MALT1 positive gastric MALT lymphoma if the lesion was localized within the gastric mucosa. |
