  • MALT type B-cell lymphoma is an uncommon subtype, particularly in the colon.

Observation:

  • A 33-year-old woman presented with symptoms suggestive of a colon tumor.
  • Diagnostic workup included clinical evaluation, imaging, and fiber endoscopy.
  • Anatomopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis.

Findings:

  • The patient was diagnosed with high-grade MALT type B-cell lymphoma (Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma) stage EII2.
  • Exploratory laparotomy was performed for further management.

Implications:
