ABSTRACT
The gastric marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) is a rare disease. Helicobacter pylori infection is known as an important etiologic factor of the pathogenesis of MALT lymphoma. H. pylori colonization at the epithelium of gastric mucosa induces T cell and B cell recruitment. T cell induced B cell proliferation develops the MALT in the gastric mucosa. Monoclonal proliferation of B cell in the MALT transform into MALT lymphoma. The eradication of H. pylori is known to induce remission of the disease in more than 80% of patients. But there is no report on progression and development of MALT lymphoma after H. pylori eradication. We experienced two cases of gastric B cell MALT lymphoma diagnosed at long last, after the successful eradication of H. pylori.
