Abstract:
A 83-year-old man was diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and scheduled for treatment. However, he developed abdominal pain, and computed tomography revealed a gastrointestinal perforation. Emergency surgery was performed, upon which we identified perforations in the small intestine, and we therefore performed resection of the small intestine. R-CHOP therapy was performed postoperatively, resulting in successful tumor shrinkage. Malignant lymphoma of the small intestine often causes intestinal perforations, and the prognosis of patients with perforations is unfavorable. We report a case of a patient with multiple intestinal perforations owing to malignant lymphoma of the small intestine, in whom minimal surgery was performed and intervention in the early postoperative period was successful.

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...
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
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...
