  • Title: Gastric MALT lymphoma treated with primary radiotherapy in the setting of autoimmune disease.
    Author: Pinnix CC, Reed V, Dabaja B.
    Journal: J Natl Compr Canc Netw; 2012 Jul 01; 10(7):815-9. PubMed ID: 22773797.
    Abstract:
    Autoimmune and microbial-induced immune reactions are associated with lymphomagenesis, particularly of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas. This report presents a case of Helicobacter pylori-negative gastric extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) in the setting of Sjögren syndrome and Hashimoto thyroiditis treated with primary involved-field radiotherapy. This report describes etiologic data, diagnostic and treatment considerations, and sophisticated radiation therapy techniques aimed at reducing long-term toxicity in this indolent disease.
