Abstract:
The most common extranodal localization of lymphomas is the small intestine, with large B-cell lymphoma and MALT lymphoma being the most typical types. Intestinal follicular lymphomas are an infrequent entity; however, due to improved endoscopic definition, diagnosis is more ando more common. We present the case of a 56-year-old woman diagnosed with follicular lymphoma, an entity that, although infrequent, has a typical endoscopic appearance. Recognition of the features described in this article may help to guide the diagnosis of this entity, which, on most occasions, has an indolent clinical course.
