ABSTRACT
A 70s male, who had undergone single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection for ascending colon cancer with pathological diagnosis of T3N3M0, Stage â
¢c(without adjuvant chemotherapy), had enhanced-computed tomography(CT)for 3-month follow-up and a hepatic low-density area, an newly emergent nodule behind inferior vena cava and distal ileal tumor were found. Three months later, enhanced CT showed that the distal ileal tumor got exponentially larger and the diagnosis of"malignant lymphoma"was suspected. The patient became sepsis, so we planned and safely performed partial resection of the tumor. The pathological diagnosis was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Postoperative course was smooth except for the Clostridium difficile colitis and he was discharged on postoperative day 19. Although the regrowth of the remnant tumor was observed soon after surgery, partial response was confirmed after introduction of systemic chemotherapy. When we cope with malignant lymphoma of small intestine, we need to keep it in mind that surgery is an option for the prevention of perforation and bacterial translocation.
