Abstract
The development of synchronous gastric adenocarcinoma and primary gast ric lymphoma is rare. We report a case of low grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue intermingled with a gastric adenoca rcinoma and without Helicobacter pylori infection. This observation le nds to discuss the pathogenesis of these tumors and the role of Helico bacter pylori infection in the development of gastric lymphoma and car cinoma.
