Abstract
BackgroundAlthough the gastrointestinal tract is one of the most common sites for extranodal lymphoma, gastrointestinal lymphoma is a rare disease that is almost exclusively non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Case presentationWe present a rare condition of Hodgkin lymphoma relapse after 12 years as isolated gastric involvement caused massive gastrointestinal bleeding in a 34-year-old Iranian woman. According to the result of the upper endoscopy, laparotomy was performed, and a large mass in the upper part of the fundus, alongside the esophagogastric junction, was seen, so gastrectomy was performed.ConclusionAll symptoms and paraclinical findings for gastrointestinal Hodgkin lymphoma are nonspecific. Therefore, the preoperative diagnosis is challenging. It seems that surgery is a suitable diagnostic and therapeutic method in this field.
