[A diagnostic approach to primary malignant lymphoma of the intestine]
Thirty-one cases of primary malignant lymphoma of the intestine diagnosed since 1980 were studied. Being reviewed the clinical data all cases were reclassified histologically according to Isaacson's new classification in 1988. The immunohistochemical staining were performed with epithelial, B-cell, T-cell and histiocytic markers for early diagnosis of the disease. The results showed male, youth and laborer predominance with a short courses and poor prognosis, Colonoscopy and X-Ray found "malignant lesions" in characteristics. Histologically, High-grade and B-cell lymphoma were predominance. MALT lymphoma and the combination of low to high-grade lesions were found. Immunohistochemical staining is quite helpful in the differentiation of carcinoma, malignant histiocytosis. Finally, the procedure of early diagnosis of the disease was proposed.
