Adult T-cell lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggressive T-cell neoplasm, usually associated with human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), with a variegated clinical presentation. Primary gastric lymphomas are generally non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NH) type B, and a minimal percentage are due to T lymphocytes. There is little literature on primary gastric lymphomas due to HTLV-1 Negative T cells that metastasize to bone. To illustrate this situation, the case of a 41-year-old adult who is admitted for a pathological fracture is presented. 15 days later, he developed diarrhea and abdominal distension, and an upper endoscopy found "gastric ulcerated lesions, neoproliferative appearance". The Biopsy reported Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma to mature T lymphocyte cells; and the HTLV1 test was negative. Three chemotherapy sessions were performed with the CHOEP scheme. There was a favorable response, and he was discharged; However, he did not return to continue therapy. The patient returned 2 months later in poor general condition. He then presented multiple organ failure, resulting in his death.
