Metachronous gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and adenocarcinoma.

The development of gastric carcinoma in a patient with gastric lymphoma is rare. Helicobacter pylori is a common etiologic agent for both these conditions. We report a 38-year-old lady who was initially diagnosed to have gastric lymphoma and developed early gastric carcinoma on follow up. She was operated on for the carcinoma and is in complete remission since.
