Abstract
Because the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal follicular lymphoma (GI-FL) remains unclear, no standardized treatment strategy has been established. Of the gastrointestinal lymphomas, gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas are strongly associated with Helicobacter pylori; hence, the microbiota may be involved in GI-FL pathogenesis. However, the association between GI-FL and the microbiota remains uninvestigated. Therefore, we compared the mucosal microbiotas of GI-FL patients with those of controls to identify microbiota changes in GI-FL patients. Mucosal biopsy samples were obtained from the second portion of the duodenum from 20 GI-FL patients with duodenal lesions and 20 controls. Subsequent 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed on these samples. QIIME pipeline and LEfSe software were used to analyze the microbiota. The GI-FL patients had significantly lower alpha diversity (P = .049) than did the controls, with significant differences in the microbial composition (P = .023) evaluated by the beta diversity metrics between the two groups. Comparing the taxonomic compositions indicated that the genera Sporomusa, Rothia, and Prevotella and the family Gemellaceae were significantly less abundant in the GI-FL patients than in the controls. GI-FL patients presented altered duodenal mucosal microbial compositions, suggesting that the microbiota might be involved in the GI-FL pathogenesis.

Clinicopathological Features, Treatment Strategy, and Prognosis of Primary Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma of the Duodenum: A SEER Database Analysis. Can J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2020; 2020:9327868. [PMID: 32399459 PMCID: PMC7201497 DOI: 10.1155/2020/9327868] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Accepted: 12/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Primary duodenum lymphoma (PDL) is extremely rare with limited data available in the literature. In this study, we sought to describe clinical features and identify factors affecting survival in patients with PDL using a large population cohort. METHODS The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was queried from 1998 to 2015. RESULTS A total of 1060 cases of PDLs were identified. Clinicopathological features as well as survival data of PDLs were analyzed and compared with 10573 primary gastric lymphomas (PGLs) and 3239 primary small intestinal lymphomas (PSILs) from the SEER database. PDL patients were younger in age (60.96 ± 15.205), and the proportion of stage I (53.21%) was higher in Ann Arbor staging. The proportion of PDLs treated by surgery (8.68%) is the lowest among PDLs, PGLs, and PSILs. The DSS of PDLs were significantly better than those of PGLs and PSILs, respectively (10-year survival rate: 21.24% vs. 20.40%, P=0.027; 10-year survival rate: 21.24% vs. 16.79%, P=0.001). Age, gender, Ann Arbor staging, and histological type were regarded as independent prognostic factor for the DSS by multivariate analysis (all P < 0.05). Patients with <65 years, female, stage I, and FL were found to be significantly associated with good DSS. The treatment modality (surgery vs. conservative treatment) was not statistically related to DSS. The proportion of PDL patients who received surgical treatment gradually decreased from 15.60% in period 2 to 5.26% in period 4. CONCLUSIONS The clinicopathologic features of duodenal lymphoma were significantly different from those of gastric lymphoma and small intestinal lymphoma. The prognosis of PDLs was significantly better than those of the other two groups, and there was no statistical survival benefit from surgery in PDLs.

Abstract
The duodenum is infrequently affected by malignant lymphoma, and follicular lymphomas of the duodenum are rare histological subtypes. There are no reported cases of collision of follicular lymphoma and other tumors in the ampulla of Vater. A 57-year-old Japanese man presented with jaundice, and abdominal computed tomography revealed a tumor of the ampulla of Vater invading the pancreatic head with biliary dilatation and a thickened duodenal wall. The patient underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. Histopathology of the resected specimen revealed lymphoid follicular formations with small-to-medium-sized centrocyte-like cells and some centroblast-like cells. The atypical lymphoid cells were immunohistochemically positive for CD10, CD20, and CD79a but negative for CD5 and cyclin D1. BCL2 protein was highly expressed in the follicle centers. The diagnosis was duodenal follicular lymphoma, Grade 1. The follicular lymphoma, 40 mm in diameter, involved duodenal submucosa and regional lymph nodes without distant metastasis. This duodenal follicular lymphoma was partially overlapped by adenocarcinoma of the ampulla of Vater, measuring 25 × 20 mm, which involved the lower common bile duct, pancreas, and duodenum. We report the first case of a surgically treated collision tumor composed of a rare mass-forming follicular lymphoma and adenocarcinoma of the ampulla of Vater.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary lymphomas of the ampulla of Vater are extremely rare. Among these most frequent are follicular lymphomas followed by mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue-type lymphoma. CASE REPORT We report a case of a 36-year-old female diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the ampulla of Vater. Endoscopic biopsy was non-diagnostic. Whipple's resection was performed. The patient was given six cycles of chemotherapy. One year later, the patient developed recurrence at the anastomotic site and again treated with combination chemotherapy. Patient is doing well after 2 years of initial surgery. DISCUSSION Tumors of the ampulla of Vater are included in the pancreaticobiliary group of neoplasms; in some instances, it is almost impossible to ascertain the exact origin of the tumor anatomically. The patients of primary lymphoma of the ampulla of Vater may have a varied clinical presentation or may be completely asymptomatic and detected during routine medical check-ups for gastric cancer screening. CONCLUSION We present a rare case of primary DLBCL of the periampullary region. Due to the rarity of these lesions, their ability to masquerade as periampullary carcinomas, and the fact that these tumors show a good response to chemotherapy, an early diagnosis is desirable.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal follicular lymphoma (GI-FL) is a relatively rare disease, accounting for only 1%-3.6% of gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Although the duodenum and terminal ileum are considered to be the most common sites of origin, the development of wireless capsule endoscopy and double-balloon enteroscopy has increased the detection of GI-FL in every part of the small intestine. Approximately 70% of patients with GI-FL are estimated to have multiple lesions throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract. FL is a low-grade lymphoma that usually develops very slowly. If the lymphoma causes no symptoms, immediate treatment may not be necessary. Standard therapy has not yet been established for GI-FL, but chemotherapy, radiotherapy, monoclonal antibody therapy, or a combination of these therapies, is sometimes performed based on the therapeutic regimens for nodal FL. Regimens including conventional chemotherapy with rituximab, which achieve high response rates in nodal FL, are commonly used for GI-FL. The long-term clinical outcome of GI-FL is unclear. The results of a few series on the long-term outcomes of patients with GI-FL treated with conventional therapy indicate a median relapse-free time ranging from 31 to 45 months. On the other hand, in patients with GI-FL who were followed without treatment, the median time to disease progression was 37.5 months. Thus, whether to initiate aggressive therapy or whether to continue watchful waiting in patients with GI-FL is a critically important decision. Ongoing research on biomarkers to guide individualized GI-FL therapy may provide invaluable information that will lead to the establishment of a standard therapeutic regimen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Information on the clinical behavior of the recently proposed primary duodenal follicular lymphoma (DFL) is limited. PATIENTS AND METHODS Demographic data, signs, symptoms, disease stage, and treatment of the patients diagnosed in National Cancer Center Hospital from 1999 to 2007 were collected and analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-seven patients were studied. Nineteen patients were asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis. Twenty patients had stage I disease. The histological grade was 1 or 2 in 26 patients. IgH/BCL2 fusion was shown in 20 of the examined 24 cases (83%). Fourteen patients received therapy upon diagnosis (local radiotherapy in 2 patients and chemotherapy in 12 including rituximab therapy), their response rate was 85%, and the estimated progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 3 years was 70%. One patient developed histological transformation. The other 13 patients were followed up; their estimated PFS rate at 3 years was 74%. Five among six cases responded to treatment even after progressive disease. All 27 patients have survived with a median follow-up time of 47.9 months. CONCLUSIONS The majority of primary DFL patients have a localized tumor of low-grade histology and are positive for t(14;18). Watchful waiting might be an alternative approach for its indolent course; however, further studies are warranted.

Abstract
A 49-yr-old Japanese woman underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy because of nonspecific dyspepsia. Endoscopy revealed a flat elevated lesion about 15 mm in diameter adjacent to the duodenal papilla, the surface of which was uneven and covered with whitish granules. Based on the results of histological examination with immunohistochemistry (positive for CD10, CD20, CD79a, and bcl-2 protein, negative for CD5 and cyclin D1), a diagnosis of grade 1/3 follicular lymphoma was established. Systemic staging examinations suggested the lymphoma was restricted to the mucosa and superficial portion of the submucosa in the duodenal wall. The patient was treated with a combination of CHOP chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) and monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody (rituximab), in addition to radiotherapy. After six courses of this combination chemotherapy, complete regression of the lymphoma was observed. Although reports of small duodenal lymphoma (<20 mm or localized to the mucosa or submucosa) are extremely rare, the features of this case are characteristic of small duodenal lymphoma in terms of evolution around the ampulla of Vater, low-grade follicular type, occurrence in a women, occurrence in the fourth decade of life, and favorable outcome, and this type of tumor may need to be distinguished by pathogenesis and clinical behavior from various other gastrointestinal lymphomas.

Abstract
Primary gastrointestinal system lymphomas constitute about one third of all extranodal lymphomas. Duodenal involvement of the lymphoma is a rare condition. Periampullary lymphoma or lymphomatous involvement of ampulla of Vater is even rarer. Since, periampullary lymphoma is not easy to differentiate from epithelial carcinoma of these sites clinically and radiologically, accurate histopathological diagnosis is essential to plan optimal treatment strategy. Obstructive jaundice and the need for some form of drainage procedure and dose modification of the chemotherapy are additional challenges. In this report, we present three cases of duodenal diffuse large cell lymphoma with involvement of ampulla of Vater, two of whom presented with the initial signs of obstructive jaundice. One of the icteric patients was only diagnosed histopathologically following an explorative laparotomy with the initial diagnosis of carcinoma.

Abstract
AIMS Recent studies of primary cutaneous follicular lymphoma suggest that it represents a clinicopathological entity distinct from nodal follicular lymphoma (FL). The purpose of this study was to determine if FL arising at other extranodal sites is more closely related to FL occurring in the skin or in lymph nodes. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifteen cases of non-cutaneous extranodal follicular lymphoma (ENFL) were identified from the Scotland and Newcastle Lymphoma Group (SNLG) database. All were stage 1E at presentation and involved the tonsil (n = 3), palate (n = 3), skeletal muscle (n = 2), ileum (n = 2), duodenum (n = 1), stomach (n = 1), thyroid gland (n = 1), submandibular gland (n = 1) and fallopian tube (n = 1). Polymerase chain reaction for t(14;18) using primers to the major breakpoint cluster region was performed on 14 cases of ENFL and the incidence of the translocation compared with that found in 16 cases of stage 1 nodal FL. Clinical and follow-up data were obtained from the SNLG database for the 15 cases of ENFL and 87 cases of stage 1 nodal FL, and a comparison of outcomes made. Only 2/14 cases of ENFL had detectable t(14;18) compared with 9/16 stage 1 nodal FL (P < 0.01). Freedom from progression and disease-specific survival was similar for the 15 cases of ENFL and 87 cases of stage 1 nodal FL. However, 13/15 patients with ENFL were disease free at the end of follow-up compared with 49/87 stage 1 nodal FL (P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS The low incidence of t(14;18) and favourable outcome encountered in ENFL in this study is similar to that previously found for primary cutaneous FL. These results support the concept of a subtype of FL lacking t(14;18) involving the major breakpoint cluster region, and with a propensity to arise at extranodal sites. Despite a high relapse rate, patients with ENFL are more likely to achieve complete remission and may ultimately have a more favourable long-term prognosis than those with equivalent nodal disease.
