“…We confirmed previous reports of a strong association with ETTL and of NHL located in the small intestine. 33,34 In addition, we observed a marked association with anaplastic large cell lymphoma, which has not been described previously but is consistent with prior observations of nonintestinal T-cell NHL in celiac disease. 35 Because only 1 of 6 cases of anaplastic large cell lymphoma was situated in the small intestine, misdiagnosis of ETTL with numerous CD30 positive cells is an improbable explanation for the association.…”

“…In addition, they had considerably more statistical precision for their estimate but included only hospitalized cases of coeliac disease. Other studies finding a higher level of risk are in general older 3,4 (and might therefore be describing a more symptomatic group of patients), but have also in many cases not censored early malignancies and may therefore be susceptible to ascertainment bias. The absolute number of lymphomas occurring in patients with coeliac disease is small.…”

“…This association was first described in the early 1960s 1 and subsequently confirmed [2][3][4] but as yet no consistent picture of its magnitude has emerged. Early studies indicated a relative risk for lymphoma of the order of 50-100 3,5,6 but were in general from tertiary referral centres with an interest in coeliac disease and almost certainly included patients with malignancy present at the time of diagnosis of coeliac disease.…”

“…2 The silent group includes those with subtle, atypical presentations and those presenting with complications of coeliac disease, as well as truly asymptomatic people picked up through screening high-risk groups. Most cases remain undiagnosed and potentially are exposed to the risk of longterm complications, which may include the development of malignancy, 3 particularly ''enteropathy-associated T cell lymphoma''. 4 In addition, patients with coeliac disease have an increased rate of autoimmune disorder, including type 1 diabetes, thyroid diseases, autoimmune liver disease, autoimmune Addison's disease and neurological problems.…”
