    Summary

    This study analyzed 61 gastrointestinal lymphomas using morphology and immunohistochemistry. Findings suggest Greek lymphomas are similar to Western types, with most being high-grade malignancy.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastrointestinal Pathology
    • Immunohistochemistry
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Primary gastrointestinal lymphomas are rare but significant neoplasms.
    • Understanding their classification and immunophenotype is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To morphologically and immunohistochemically characterize primary gastric and intestinal lymphomas.
    • To compare Greek cases with established Western classifications.

    Main Methods:

    • Morphological analysis of 61 gastrointestinal lymphomas (39 gastric, 22 intestinal).
    • Immunohistochemical study using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method.
    • Assessment of intracytoplasmic immunoglobulin light chains (kappa and lambda) and heavy chains.

    Main Results:

    • 18 low-grade and 43 high-grade lymphomas identified per Kiel classification.
    • Monoclonal intracytoplasmic immunoglobulin positivity detected in 27 cases (18 kappa, 7 lambda).
    • Kappa/mu staining pattern was most frequent; centrocytoid plasma cells showed Ig positivity; all cases negative for histiocytic markers.

    Conclusions:

    • Greek primary gastrointestinal lymphomas exhibit histological and immunohistochemical features similar to Western types.
    • The study confirms the utility of immunohistochemistry in classifying these neoplasms.
