Case description

Since Billroth first described a gastrointestinal lymphoma in 1871, numerous lymphoid tumors have been reported in virtually all parts of the digestive tract. Lymphomas may appear in the colon as primary malignancies or as a manifestation of systemic disease. Differentiation between primary colonic lymphoma (PCL) and secondary colorectal involvement is of great therapeutic and prognostic importance.
