Primer Kolorektal Lenfoma Deneyimlerimiz

Abstract

Abs tractAim: In this paper, we aimed to present our surgical approach to ten patients who underwent surgery for primary colonic lymphoma and the features and clinical presentations of the tumors. Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the data of ten patients who underwent surgery in our clinic for primary colorectal lymphoma between January 2006 and December 2012. Results:The median age of the patients at the time of diagnosis was 66 (50-84) years. The most frequent presenting complaints were abdominal pain and change in bowel habits. The most frequent physical examination findings were abdominal distention and widespread tenderness. Three patients underwent emergency surgery subsequent to acute abdomen diagnosis. During the surgery, it was observed that one patient had ileocecal invagination, one patient had a mass that caused cecal perforation, and one other had an obstructive mass in the sigmoid colon. The most common localizations were the cecum (60%), sigmoid colon (30%), and the rectum (10%), respectively. The most frequent type was B-cell lymphoma (n=8). Conclusion

A rare cause of acute abdomen mimicking plastron appendicitis: Non-hodgkin lymphoma of ceacum.

“…Gündeş ve ark. [12] yaptıkları çalışmada, cerrahi müdahalenin hastalığın tedavisinde önemli rol oynadığını belirtmişlerdir. Lokalize hastalığı olanlara küratif maksatlı cerrahi önerilebilir, palyatif cerrahi prosedürler ise obstrüksiyon ve diğer semptomları düzeltmede kullanılabilir.…”

The Retrospective Evaluation of Our Cases Diagnosed with Primary Gastrointestinal Tract Lymphoma

“…Erkeklerde daha sıktır (11,13,14). Ülkemizde primer GİS lenfomalarının görülme yaşı ortalama 42-66 yaş arasında değişmekte olup, genellikle erkeklerde daha baskındır (15)(16)(17)(18). Görülme yaşı ve cinsiyet dağılımı yönünden bizim hastalarımız, ülkemizdeki verilerle paralellik göstermekle birlikte, görülme yaşı açısından ortalama 61 yaş ile biraz daha yaşlıdır.…”
