Resumen
MEREGILDO-RODRIGUEZ, Edinson Dante et al. Non-HTLV-1-associated primary gastric T-cell lymphoma with cutaneous metastasis and pneumoperitoneum. Rev. Cuerpo Med. HNAAA [online]. 2022, vol.15, n.1, pp.126-129. Epub 31-Mar-2022. ISSN 2225-5109. http://dx.doi.org/10.35434/rcmhnaaa.2022.151.1055.
Background:
Primary gastric lymphomas (PGL) account for less than 5% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). The vast majority of PGL are high-grade B-cell lymphomas. PGL are very rare and are usually associated with HTLV-1 infection in endemic regions.
Methods:
We describe the case of a middle-aged female patient who presented pneumoperitoneum due to a perforated gastric ulcer, wasting syndrome, and skin and oral lesions.
Results:
Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed primary gastric T-cell lymphoma with skin metastasis. The serology for HTLV-1, Epstein-Barr virus and HIV were negative.
Conclusion:
The aim of this report is to present this extremely rare presentation of PGL.
