    Abstract:
    We report a case of primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), de novo DLBCL without the features of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, which regressed after Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication. A 27-year-old Japanese female with epigastralgia was revealed to have ulcerated lesions in the angle and antral regions on gastroscopy. Biopsy specimen was consistent with a diagnosis of DLBCL without MALT lymphoma component, indicating de novo development. Her clinical staging on the Lugano system was Stage I. HP was positive on a rapid urease test, and she received HP eradication therapy twice, because the first therapy was not successful. On gastroscopy performed 1 month after the second HP eradication therapy, no ulcerated lesion was noted, and the lymphoma cells had regressed histopathologically.
