ABSTRACT

The stomach is the most frequent site of extranodal lymphoma. Gastric lymphoma MALT (mucosa associated lymphoid tissue) is when a proliferation of B cells exist in the gastric glands with the association of groups called “lymphoepitelials”. MALT is tipically a low grade, B-cell neoplasia and has a direct relationship with the infection of H. pylori. the clinical presentation is poorly specific, symptoms ranging from vague dyspepsia to alarm symptoms. The first line treatment is the triple antibiotic therapy for eradication of H. pylori, with a overall 5-year survival ranging from 75% to 90%.
