Malignant lymphoma can cause acute obstructive symptoms, mimicking colon cancer. Early surgical intervention aids diagnosis and treatment for this rare ileocecal CD5-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Oncology
- Pathology
Background:
- Primary gastrointestinal lymphoma is a rare extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma, comprising 1-4% of GI malignancies.
- Small intestine involvement occurs in 20-30% of primary GI lymphomas.
- CD5-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare variant (5-10% of DLBCLs) associated with poor prognosis.

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.

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...
