RESUMEN
Introduction: Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) arises in a number of epithelial tissues, including the stomach, salivary gland, lung, small bowel, thyroid, ocular adnexa, skin, and elsewhere. It has also been called low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT). MALT lymphoma predominantly occurs in adults and is rare in children. Case Presentation: We report a case of MALT lymphoma involving the stomach, which is the most common subtype, in a 12-year-old girl. Initially, the patient relapsed after antibiotic therapy but achieved successful treatment subsequently through irradiation. Conclusion: Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy should be given to all patients with gastric MZL, irrespective of stage. In patients who do not respond to antibiotic therapy, treatment options such as irradiation and systemic cancer therapies should be considered, depending on the disease stage.
RESUMEN
Loffler syndrome is an uncommon, self-limited, benign pulmonary eosinophilia that usually lasts less than a month. Abnormal chest radiography occurs in 95% of patients; however, computed tomography findings are not well described. We present clinical features, radiological, and pathological findings of Loeffler's syndrome with secondary bacterial pneumonia in a child. He presented with dry cough, hemoptysis 2 times, chest pain for 1 week. Blood tests revealed high C-reactive protein levels and eosinophilia. On the initial computed tomography (CT) scan, a lesion was discovered at the upper edge of the right lung hilum. The lesion developed in size, together with right pleural effusion, on the repeated CT scan. A lung biopsy revealed a substantial number of inflammatory cells, including eosinophils and neutrophils. After ruling all other possibilities, Loffler's syndrome was confirmed. As a result of antibiotic treatment, favorable outcomes were confirmed by improving clinical symptoms and follow-up chest CT scans. A close combination of pulmonary symptoms, peripheral blood eosinophilia, abnormal chest imaging, and histopathological findings must be taken to confirm the diagnosis of Loeffler's syndrome.
