RESUMO
We report a case of a 35 year-old-woman who suffered from abdominal pain and weight loss. Asymptomatic celiac disease was discovered and complicated with a MALT Lymphoma in the jejunum. This is an uncommon combination because lymphoma that arises in the presence of enteropathy is commonly from T lymphocytes. Also because it normally appears in patients with long standing celiac disease who report a recrudescence of the abdominal symptoms.
