Abstract:
This article deals with a surgical approach to primary gastrointestinal lymphoma - a rare finding when compared to primary gastric carcinoma. The clinical findings, diagnosis and staging of the disease as well as various treatment methods and prognosis of the condition are discussed. As it is evident from the paper, the opinions of individual authors regarding this diagnosis may often differ considerably. Furthermore, this paper presents two separate case studies of surgical treatment for gastric lymphomas performed at our department in 2016. Case study 1 describes a surgical intervention for acute abdomen, where lymphoma was already diagnosed peroperatively. Case study 2 presents the case of a patient indicated for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy with an unexpected finding of primary gallbladder lymphoma.Key words: primary gastrointestinal lymphoma - chemotherapy - surgical intervention - primary intestinal lymphoma - primary lymphoma of the gallbladder.
