Summary

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a distinct, indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma affecting extranodal sites like the stomach and lungs. This article details its common radiological appearances.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma encompasses diverse diseases, including indolent and aggressive subtypes.
  • Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a recently recognized distinct entity.
  • MALT lymphoma originates in extranodal mucosal lymphoid tissue, affecting organs such as the stomach, lungs, eyes, and salivary glands.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To illustrate the typical radiological patterns observed in MALT lymphoma.
  • To enhance the understanding of MALT lymphoma diagnosis through imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Review of radiological imaging findings in pathologically confirmed MALT lymphoma cases.
  • Correlation of imaging features with affected extranodal sites.

Main Results:

  • MALT lymphoma typically presents as a low-grade malignancy with an indolent clinical course.
  • Common radiological manifestations vary depending on the affected extranodal site (e.g., gastric wall thickening, lung nodules).

Conclusions:

  • Radiological imaging plays a crucial role in identifying and characterizing MALT lymphoma.
  • Familiarity with the diverse radiological patterns of MALT lymphoma aids in timely diagnosis and management.
