Abstract
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the stomach has recently been defined as a distinct histopathologic entity, often associated with Helicobacter pylori infection.1,2 High-grade gastric lymphoma is composed of diffuse large cells with abundant cytoplasm, vesicular nuclei, and prominent nucleoli. It is a distinct disease with aggressive clinical features and a poorer prognosis than that of low-grade MALT lymphomas.3,4 Patients with localized high-grade MALT lymphoma are often treated with either surgical resection or chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy.
