[Gastric stump MALT lymphoma: a case report and review of the literature]. / Lymphome malt développé sur moignon gastrique: a propos d'une observation et revue de la littérature.

Gastric stump lymphoma is uncommon. We report a case of MALT lymphoma of the gastric stump occurring in a 65 year-old male. This patient had undergone subtotal gastrectomy for a gastric peptic ulcer at age 51. Histologic findings in the initial gastric specimen showed follicular gastritis with Helicobacter Pylori. This previous gastric surgery cured the ulceration but did not remove the Helicobacter Pylori infection that led to the development of gastric lymphoma.

[Gastric cancer with lymphoid stroma: a rare form associated with Epstein-Barr virus. Five cases]. / Le cancer gastrique à stroma lymphoïde.

We report the cases of 5 patients with gastric cancer with lymphoid stroma, aged from 40 to 66 years. The tumor was located in the upper and the middle third of stomach in four patients. Using in situ hybridization, the tumor was Epstein-Barr virus-positive in all patients whereas immunohistochemical analysis was negative. Four patients had total gastrectomy associated in two cases with splenectomy and caudal pancreatic resection. The last patient had subtotal gastrectomy. One patient was lost to follow-up. After a mean follow-up of 31 months, 4 patients are alive and free of local recurrence.
