Primary Tracheal Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma Treated with a Water-Jet Hybrid Knife: A Case Report

Abstract: Primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the trachea is very rare and is easily misdiagnosed as a bronchogenic carcinoma or benign tracheal tumor. Here, we report a clinical case where a new clinical approach involving a water-jet hybrid knife was employed in the diagnosis and treatment of primary tracheal MALT lymphoma.

“…The feasibility of this new device has been assessed in animal stomach, esophagus and colon and there are quite a number of initial experiences in humans 16,17. Besides the treatment of early stage gastrointestinal tumors, the hybrid knife has been reported in en bloc transurethral resection of bladder tumour which is nonmuscle invasive,18 and treatment of primary tracheal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma,19 also for the diagnosis of pleural effusions 20. Based on the previous experience of using a HK via semirigid thoracoscopy for electrocautery biopsy of the pleura,20 we hypothesized that the HK could make the dissection of a tracheal lesion large and deep enough without obvious damage because of the submucosal water cushion, making APC treatment of the fully exposed base more effective.…”
