Colonic MALToma accounts for 2.5% of all MALTomas. MALToma can be associated with certain chronic infections, autoimmune disorders, Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia, and old age. Synchronous MALTomas can occur in multiple organs. Simultaneous occurrence of colonic MALToma and colon cancer has been reported. A case of colonic MALToma and lung cancer is described here.

Abstract Background Gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is often caused by Helicobacter pylori and has a good prognosis. Rarely, patients with MALT lymphoma may have gastric cancer and have a poor prognosis. Case presentation We herein report a case in which surgical treatment was achieved for a 72-year-old male patient with gastric and duodenal MALT lymphoma coexisting multiple gastric cancers. He underwent upper endoscopy for epigastric discomfort, which revealed mucosal erosion on the posterior wall of the middle body of the stomach, an elevated lesion on the duodenal bulb, and a raised tumor on the antrum of the stomach. He was diagnosed with gastric and duodenal MALT lymphoma with early gastric cancer. One month after H. pylori eradication, a second upper endoscopy revealed no improvement in the gastric or duodenal mucosa, and areas of strong redness with a shallow recess just below the cardia of the stomach. As a result, a diagnosis of gastric and duodenal MALT lymphoma with two gastric cancers was made. Total gastrectomy with proximal duodenum resection using intraoperative upper endoscopy and regional lymph node dissection was performed. Pathologically, gastric and duodenal MALT lymphoma and three gastric cancers were detected. Since one of them was an advanced cancer, he started taking S-1 after his general condition improved. Conclusion For early detection of gastric and duodenal MALT lymphoma or gastric cancer, appropriate upper endoscopy and a biopsy are important. It is necessary to select a suitable treatment, such as H. pylori eradication, endoscopic treatment, surgery, chemotherapy, and irradiation, according to the disease state.

Background: In Western countries, the prevalence of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma has declined over the last three decades. Contemporaneously, H. pylori negative gastric MALT lymphoma is increasingly encountered, and their genetic basis and clinical features remain elusive. Methods: A total of 57 cases of H. pylori negative gastric MALT lymphoma were reviewed and investigated for chromosome translocation by fluorescence in-situ hybridization and for somatic mutations by the targeted sequencing of 93 genes. Results: MALT1 translocation, most likely t(11;18)(q21;q21)/BIRC3-MALT1, was detected in 39% (22/57) cases, and IGH translocation was further seen in 12 MALT1-negative cases, together accounting for 60% of the cohort. Targeted sequencing was successful in 35 cases, and showed frequent mutations in NF-κB signaling pathways (TNFAIP3 = 23%, CARD11 = 9%, MAP3K14 = 9%), together affecting 14 cases (40%). The NF-κB pathway mutations were mutually exclusive from MALT1, albeit not IGH translocation, altogether occurring in 86% of cases. There was no significant correlation between the genetic changes and clinicopathological parameters. The patients showed a median of progression-free survival (PFS) of 66.3 months, and a significant superior PFS when treated with systemic versus antibiotic therapy (p = 0.004). Conclusion: H. pylori negative gastric MALT lymphoma is characterized by highly frequent genetic changes in the NF-κB signaling pathways.
