ABSTRACT
Duodenal type follicular lymphoma is a rare malignancy accounting for less than 4% of primary non-Hodgkin lymphomas of the gastrointestinal tract and it is a new entity that was recently described in the new update WHO 2016. Data regarding long-term outcome are currently lacking, and for that reason, a consensus on the management of this disease has not been established and treatment. We report a case of a 57-year-old female patient diagnosed with duodenal- type follicular lymphoma grade 3a who was treated with R-CHOP. The aim of this study is to add more data for a greater characterization of the entity and thus select the best management for each case.

La hipercalcemia es un trastorno metabólico frecuente en los pacientes con cáncer. Se asocia comúnmente con neoplasias mamarias, pulmonares y hematológicas.

Se presenta el caso de un varón joven con leoimiosarcoma duodenal metastásico a hígado quien desarrolló hipercaldemia maligna refractaria a terapia convencional que mostró buena respuesta a quimioembolización y al nitrato de galio
