Abstract:
Primary gastrointestinal lymphoma is a rare neoplasm that accounts for less than 5% of all gastrointestinal malignancies. We present a case of a 37-year-old woman positive for human immunodeficiency virus who presented with abdominal pain and vomiting for three months. She underwent endoscopic biopsy and was found to have high-grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the jejunum. This report discusses her treatments and includes a brief literature review highlighting the rarity of this entity, the etiological agents implicated in its pathogenesis, and the lack of specific guidelines for treatment.
