[Multiple lymphomatous polyposis of the intestinal tract]

The authors report on a patient suffering from centrocytic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Double contrast examination of the colon showed multiple, partially pedunculated polyps in the terminal ileum and colon. As cause of these lesions involvement of the bowel by lymphoma could be proved by biopsy. The differential diagnosis against other types of polyposis is discussed and the variable radiographical manifestations of the disease known as "multiple lymphomatous polyposis" are pointed out.
