Colon Lymphoma

by

Q) A 55-year-old male patient presents with chronic abdominal pain, weight loss, and intermittent diarrhea. Colonoscopy reveals a mass in the cecum, and biopsy confirms colonic lymphoma. Which of the following statements is most likely true regarding this condition?

A) Colonic lymphoma is predominantly of T-cell origin
B) It is more common in females
C) The cecum is the most common site of involvement
D) It typically presents in the 3rd and 4th decades of life

C) The cecum is the most common site of involvement

Explanation:

Colonic lymphoma is a rare form of lymphoma that primarily affects the gastrointestinal tract. Among the options provided:

  • A) Colonic lymphoma is predominantly of T-cell origin: This is incorrect. Colonic lymphoma is most commonly of B-cell origin, particularly extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MALT lymphoma), rather than T-cell lymphoma.
  • B) It is more common in females: This is also incorrect. Colonic lymphoma does not have a strong gender predilection. The incidence is more balanced between males and females.
  • C) The cecum is the most common site of involvement: This is correct. The cecum is the most frequent site of involvement in colonic lymphoma, especially for extranodal B-cell lymphoma, such as MALT lymphoma. It tends to present as a mass-like lesion, often causing symptoms such as abdominal pain and weight loss.
  • D) It typically presents in the 3rd and 4th decades of life: This is incorrect. Colonic lymphoma is more commonly diagnosed in older adults, typically over the age of 50. It is relatively rare in younger individuals.
