    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Primary gastrointestinal lymphoma is a rare malignancy.
    • Manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment vary widely.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the clinical characteristics, diagnostic approaches, treatment modalities, and outcomes of primary gastrointestinal lymphoma.
    • To identify prognostic factors influencing patient survival.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 56 patients with primary gastrointestinal lymphoma.
    • Review of clinical data including symptoms, diagnostic procedures (endoscopy, biopsy, operation), histologic types, disease stage, treatment regimens, and survival data.

    Main Results:

    • 27 cases of primary gastric lymphoma and 29 involving other gastrointestinal sites were identified.

  • Nonspecific symptoms like abdominal pain and weight loss were common; diagnosis often occurred during surgery.
  • Diffuse histiocytic lymphoma was the predominant type.
  • Average survival was 38 months for gastric lymphoma versus 21 months for intestinal lymphoma.
  • Advanced disease stage at presentation significantly correlated with reduced survival.

    • Conclusions:

    • Disease stage is the most critical prognostic factor in primary gastrointestinal lymphoma.
    • Current diagnostic and treatment approaches are varied, necessitating standardized protocols.
    • Prospective randomized clinical trials are essential to determine optimal management strategies and improve patient outcomes.
