摘要
A rare gastric mucosal lesion characterized by Russell body-containing plasma cell infiltration is termed as Russell body gastritis. This lesion is highly suggested to be correlated with Helicobacter pylori-induced chronic gastritis, and often misdiagnosed as mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, signet ring cell carcinoma, plasmacytoma, or xanthoma. However, Russell body gastritis is easily discriminated by its polyclonal immunoreaction to immunoglobulin light chains contrary to monoclonal immunoreaction of neoplastic disease. We report here a case of Russell body gastritis associated with H. pylori infection, which disappeared after H. pylori eradication.
