“…Using both surgery and adjuvant therapy for PCL, 5-year survival rates have ranged from 27-55% (Table II) [5,[13][14][15]18]. One study has noted a poorer prognosis for patients with PCL whose tumors were larger than 5 cm and for lymph node positive tumors [18]. Similar to adenocarcinoma of the colon, disease recurrences generally will occur within two years of the initial diagnosis.…”

“…OUTCOME Reported overall survival rates for NHL at other gastrointestinal sites, such as the stomach and small intestine, are generally better that for NHL involving the colon [1,5,17]. Using both surgery and adjuvant therapy for PCL, 5-year survival rates have ranged from 27-55% (Table II) [5,[13][14][15]18]. One study has noted a poorer prognosis for patients with PCL whose tumors were larger than 5 cm and for lymph node positive tumors [18].…”

“…They have been described to have limited stage and high-grade disease [8]. There is a male predominance, with a maximal reported incidence in the 5th to 7th decades [7]. Patients often present delayed with non-specific symptoms and consequently have advanced disease at the time of diagnosis.…”

“…The incidence of primary colorectal lymphomas (PCL) is rare, comprising 10-20% of gastrointestinal lymphomas [1][2][3], and only 0.2-0.6% of large bowel malignancies [4][5][6][7]. They have been described to have limited stage and high-grade disease [8].…”

This study aimed at investigating the incidence, presentation, patient and tumor characteristics, treatment, and outcome of primary colorectal lymphomas (PCL) at a tertiary care center in Lebanon over a 25-year period. The Dawson's criteria were used for selection of eligible cases. The medical records were reviewed for demographic variables, the presence of risk factors, presenting signs and symptoms, method of diagnosis, histologic type, type of therapy, and condition at last follow-up. Nine cases of PCL were identified (12.7% of gastrointestinal lymphomas and 0.1% of colorectal malignancies). The mean age at presentation was 44.2 years with male predominance noted. Abdominal pain was the most common presentation (77.8%). Colonoscopy was performed for eight patients with non-specific gross tumor characteristics. Three patients had Burkitt's and six had diffuse large B-Cell lymphomas. The most common site of involvement was the cecum (55.6%) with all cases presenting in stage I(E). Surgery was performed for six patients followed by chemotherapy except for one, and three patients had chemotherapy only. The median survival time was 25 months and the 2-year survival time was approximated at 60%. It is concluded that PCL is a rare malignancy with well-identified disease characteristics yet controversial ideal management plan.

Ileocolic intussusception in adult due to malignant lymphoma in the cecum with intramural metatasis

et al. 1996

A rare adult case of intussusception caused by malignant lymphoma of the cecum with intramural metastasis is reported. The patient was a 24-year-old man. Ileocolic intussusception was diagnosed by characteristic findings on abdominal computed tomography. Endoscopic examination revealed a massive protuberant tumor, 3 cm in diameter, and a semipedunculated polyp, 1 cm in diameter, in the cecum, which had caused the ileocolic intussusception. Endoscopic biopsy specimens failed to yield a definitive diagnosis histologically, but right hemicolectomy with lymph node dissection was performed. On histologic examination of the surgical specimens, both the tumor and the polyp were diagnosed as diffuse lymphoma of medium-sized cell type, and no lymph node involvement was found. The patient responded well to surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment, and has had no recurrence of malignant lymphoma in the 2 years since the surgical treatment. This was a very rare case of an intussusception in an adult patient due to malignant lymphoma in the cecum with intramural metastasis and without lymph node involvement.
