A primary esophageal MALT lymphoma patient with Helicobacter pylori infection achieved complete remission after H. pylori eradication without anti-lymphoma treatment
Primary esophageal lymphoma is an extremely rare disease. We report a 76-year-old woman with esophageal lymphoma who achieved remission after Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed a mass in the lower esophagus, and she was diagnosed with stage IE mucosa-asso...
