ABSTRACT
Primary follicular lymphoma of the gut (PFL-GI) is a rare entity. This study aims to compare the clinicopathologic features of PFL-GI with cases of gastrointestinal involvement by disseminated nodal follicular lymphoma. This is a retrospective study with 6 cases of primary follicular lymphoma and 8 cases of secondary involvement of the gut, over a period of 9 years. The slides and blocks were retrieved and reviewed. Clinical data was obtained from hospital records. Clinicopathologic features were compared. PFL-GI cases had a slightly higher median age group (p value 0.23) and no gender predilection when compared to cases with secondary involvement which showed a female preponderance. Para-aortic lymphadenopathy was seen in all secondary cases whereas none of the primary cases showed significant lymphadenopathy. The only microscopic feature that was different was the presence of hollowed out pattern of immunostaining for follicular dendritic cells seen in all cases of PFL-GI but in none of the secondary cases
