Abstract
- Colonic lymphoma is a rare malignant gastrointestinal tumor that can be revealed by an exceptional and serious complication: intestinal obstruction. Treatment is based on surgery and chemotherapy. We here report a case of diffuse colonic large B-cell lymphoma revealed by occlusion and diagnosed based on the examination of surgical specimen in a 64-year-old man who was in complete remission after six courses of R-CHOP.<br />Competing Interests: Les auteurs ne déclarent aucun conflit d'intérêts.<br /> (Copyright: Mohamed Zioui et al.)
