abdominal pain, immunoproliferative small intestine disease, gastric endoscopy.Abstract
We present the case of a 52-year-old female patient, without a personal or family history of cancer, with epigastralgia, and without improvement, despite high doses with proton pump inhibitors. Due to the persistence of the symptoms, it is decided to request a new gastroscopy where duodenal lesions are described as lymphangiectasis. Biopsies are taken and sent to pathological anatomy, with a diagnosis of primary intestinal lymphoma.
