  • Title: Radiological characteristics of primary intestinal lymphoma of the "Mediterranean" type: observations on twelve cases.
    Author: Ramos L, Marcos J, Illanas M, Hernández-Mora M, Pérez-Payá F, Picouto JL, Santana P, Chantar C.
    Journal: Radiology; 1978 Feb; 126(2):379-85. PubMed ID: 414303.
    Abstract:
    Radiological findings in 12 cases of "Mediterranean" lymphoma are analyzed, 4 of which are associated with gammapathy. These findings have not permitted differentiation of this type of lymphoma from those classically described, although there are two signs that strongly suggest this diagnosis: extension of the lesions along wide areas of the small intestine, almost always including the duodenum, and spiculation of the mucosal fold edges, representing massive plasmocyte infiltration of the lamina propria. The principal clinical, immunological, and pathological aspects are described, as well as the radiological differential diagnosis.
