Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2021 Jul;113(7):552-553. doi: 10.17235/reed.2020.7538/2020.

Abstract

A 64-year-old male presented to our center with epigastric pain, anorexia, fatigue, weight loss and anemia on a laboratory study. An abdominal ultrasound revealed thickening of the gastric walls. Upper endoscopy demonstrated a 40 mm ulcerated lesion at the incisura angularis. A biopsy of the lesion revealed a lymphocytic infiltrate expressing CD5, CD20 and cyclin D1, typical of mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL).
