한 유제품 CF로 인해 누구나 한 번쯤은 들어보았을 헬리코박터 파이로리(Helicobacter Pylori). 헬리코박터 파이로리균은 위 점막에 기생하는 나선균으로 위나선균으로도 불린다. 이 세균은 환자에게서 분리된 균주마다 서로 다른 유전체 구조를 가진 특이한 세균집단으로 만성 전정부 위염, 소화성궤양, 위 MALT(점막연관림프조직형) 림프종, 위암 등의 원인이다.

폐의 원발성 림프종은 반응성 림프성 병변과 조직학적으로 감별하기가 어려우나, 반응성 림프증식 증은 polyclonality를 보이는 반면에 악성 림프종은 monoclonality를 보이므로 immunohistochemistry, PCR 분석을 이용하여 감별할 수 있다. 저자 등은 59세 여자 환자에서 개흉폐생검과 lmmunorustochemistry로 진단하고, PCR로 재확인한 악성 B-cell 림프종 1례를 경험 하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

만성 복통을 주소로 내원한 12세 여아에서 내시경 소견상 결절성 위염과 조직 검사상 H. pylori 감염을 확인 하였으며, 병리 소견 및 면역조직화학 검사상 위 MALT 림프종으로 진단되어, H. pylori 제균 치료 후 결절성 위염의 호전과 위 MALT 림프종의 완전한 관해를 경험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical and the histopathological characteristics of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas in the stomach. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 22 patients who had been treated at Samsung Medical Center from Jan. 1995 to Sep. 2000 and who had been pathologically proven to have a MALT lymphoma. The factors we analyzed were operative procedure, tumor stage, and histopathological characteristics. Results: Of 3658 patients with a gastric malignancy, 22 patients proved to have a MALT lymphoma ($0.6\%$). There were 7 men and 15 women whose ages ranged from 25 years to 70 years (mean, 48.8 years). Forteen cases were located in the antrum, 4 ($18\%$) in the body and 4 ($18\%$) in the fundus or the high body. Nineteen of these patients were managed with total gastrectomy and splenectomy and 3 with radical subtotal gastrectomy. Histopathologically the tumor was limited to the mucosa in 3 patients ($1.36\%$), to the submucosa in 13 ($59.1\%$) and extended to the muscularis propria in 6 ($27.3\%$). Lymph node involvement was seen in 12 patients ($54.6\%$). There was no splenic or hepatic involvement. Bone marrow involvement was not seen in any patients. H. pylori was identified in 11 patients (50$\%$). During the mean follow-up period of 32.7 months, there were no reports of tumor recurrence or death. Conclusion: MALT lymphomas rarely disseminate by the time of diagnosis and rarely involve the bone marrow. Lymph node involvement is relatively high and a total gastrectomy is effective in managing patients with a MALT lymphoma.

Objectives : Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue(MALT) lymphoma of the head and neck region is relatively rare, but it has variable clinical and biological characteristics. Although there were few studies on this topic, there is still controversy regarding the best treatment. The authors retrospectively investigated the clinical courses and treatment results in 10 patients presenting with MALT-lymphoma in head and neck region except ocular adnexa. Material and Methods : Ten patients with a histologically verified diagnosis of the extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma arising in thyroid glands(3), larynx(3), oral cavity(2), oropharynx(1), salivary glands(1) were analyzed. Results : Four patients were allocated to stage IE and another six patients to stage IIE according to the Ann Arbor staging system. Treatment consisted of local therapy(surgical resection and/or radiotherapy) in four patients and systemic chemotherapy with/without local therapy in six patients. Complete remission and partial remission were achieved in seven patients(70%) and two patients(20%), respectively. No recurrence or mortality was observed with a mean follow-up of 40.5 months. Conclusion : Patients with MALT-lymphomas of the head and neck region were potentially treated by local modality in localized disease state. However systemic chemotherapy was also effective even in localized disease state and was well tolerated by patients. And strict staging and close long-term monitoring were recommended considering its indolent progression.

Malignant lymphoma rarely occurs in the larynx and hypopharynx. Few cases of malignant lymphoma in the larynx were reported in Korea. However, malignant lymphoma in the hypopharynx had been not reported in Korea. A 68-year-old woman came to the outpatient clinic with a foreign body sensation in her throat. A round, smooth margin, bright pink-colored mass was confirmed by the laryngoscopy. The patient took neck computer tomography. A small bulging of mucosa was observed, but there was no peripheral infiltration or abnormally enlarged lymph nodes. We did excision using CO2 LASER. She was finally diagnosed with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT lymphoma). After diagnosis, several image studies confirmed that there was no metastatic lesion. She got only radiotherapy after that and kept a complete response state for over 2 years.
