ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Mantle cell lymphoma is a rare type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma which accounts for 5 % of all cases. Patients present with an advanced form of the disease. We present here a case of ileocolic intussusception secondary to mantle cell lymphoma which was revealed by abdominal pain and vomiting that was treated by surgical resection followed by chemotherapy. CASE PRESENTATION This report illustrates the case of a 34-year-old male who presented with abdominal pain and vomiting. Imageology demonstrated an ileocolic intussusception which was treated with hemicolectomy followed by chemotherapy. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of Mantle cell lymphoma. CLINICAL DISCUSSION:
Mantel cell lymphoma is a rare type of B-cell cancer. Patients are generally diagnosed with an advanced stage of the disease. Ileocolic intussusception is an uncommon presentation. Surgery is the pillar of the treatment. Resection depends on the extent and location of the lesion. Postoperative chemotherapy is crucial and it increases survival rate.CONCLUSION:
Mantle cell lymphoma is a rare subgroup of B-cell lymphomas. Ileocolic intussusception is a complicated form of the disease. Surgery combined with chemotherapy is the mainstay of the treatment. Diagnosis is confirmed by histological analysis of the surgical specimen.
