Abstract:
A 64-year-old man had a sudden onset of gastrointestinal bleeding. He had been diagnosed as systemic mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) 27 months ago, and the first-line chemotherapy was undergone. After maintaining CR state during 12 months, he showed PD. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed multiple lymphomatous polyps, and active bleeding was noticed from the ulceration of the top of these polyps. After hemostasis was gained, biopsies were done twice and a local recurrence of MCL was diagnosed finally by immunohistological examination. In consequence of the second-line chemotherapy including bendamustine, he was introduced into CR again. We present this rare case of long-term follow up of MCL with a series of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.

Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by transmural...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
