Insights

A rare case of Mantle cell lymphoma presented as ileocecal intussusception in a 63-year-old woman. This discovery led to timely treatment including chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Oncology
  • Hematology

Background:

  • Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
  • Intussusception, particularly ileocecal, is an uncommon presentation for gastrointestinal lymphomas.

Observation:

  • A 63-year-old female presented with abdominal pain and bloody discharge.
  • Abdominal CT revealed ileocecal intussusception, leading to a right colectomy.
  • Pathological examination of the resected specimen confirmed Mantle cell lymphoma.

Findings:

  • The patient received initial chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation.
  • This case highlights the importance of considering rare presentations of MCL.
  • The diagnosis was incidental, emphasizing the need for vigilance in unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the diagnostic challenge of MCL presenting as intussusception.
  • It provides insights into the management of MCL with this rare initial manifestation.
  • Further research into optimal treatment strategies for such rare presentations is warranted.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease V: Surgical Management

Surgical interventions for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are essential in managing symptoms and addressing complications. The selection of surgical procedures is contingent upon the specific conditions and complications that stem from these illnesses.
Here are some common surgical interventions for IBD:

Inflammatory Bowel Disease III: Diagnostic Studies and Management I-Nutritional Therapy

Various diagnostic tests are employed in the diagnostic process for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), particularly to differentiate between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Diagnostic studies
A colonoscopy is the definitive screening test, distinguishing ulcerative colitis from other colon diseases with similar symptoms. During a colonoscopy test, inflamed mucosa with exudate ulcerations can be observed, and biopsies are taken to determine the histologic characteristics of the...
