Abstract

Background

Although the first-line therapy for early-stage gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma is the eradication of Helicobacter pylori, the effect of eradication in Helicobacter pylori-negative cases is unclear. In this case report, we describe a surgical option for a case of Barrett’s esophageal cancer with concurrent gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.

Case presentation

A 79-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with Barrett’s esophageal cancer and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. Initially, we performed endoscopic submucosal dissection for Barrett’s esophageal cancer. Since residual tumor was observed after the endoscopic submucosal dissection, we performed an esophagectomy with two-field lymph node dissection, which was followed by placement of a gastric conduit via the posterior mediastinal route. He was discharged 14 days after surgery. Although no additional treatment exists for mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, no recurrent disease has been detected to date.

Conclusion

An option to use a portion of the stomach with low-grade malignant mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma as a conduit after esophagectomy was suggested.
