Abstract
Gastric extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a rare presentation of a rare disease. We report a 33-year-old woman presenting with epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting. Endoscopic examination revealed gastric and duodenal ulceration. Biopsy of the ulcers revealed ENKTL. The patient began treatment, but developed hemorrhagic shock from her ulcers and died. Gastric ENKTL is a rare disease that presents with gastric ulceration. It has a high rate of mortality, and treatment is challenging because of its aggressive nature and lack of high-quality data to guide therapy.
