Figure 1 Computed tomography scan revealed a large circumferential mass involving the transverse colon which extended approximately 14 cm in length (arrows).
A: Axial; B: Coronal; C: Transverse.
Figure 2 Colonoscopy with multiple polyps and nodularity throughout the colon.
Figure 3 Colonoscopy with 15 cm malignant appearing stricture in the transverse colon.
Figure 4 Colonoscopy.
2.5 cm in her rectum polyp.
Figure 5 The infiltrate is composed of small to intermediate-sized lymphocytes with round nuclei, inconspicuous nucleoli and lacks an inflammatory background.
Prominent intraepithelial lymphocytosis is present (arrows; Hematoxylin and Eosin, 500 ×). Pathology results of her stomach, duodenum, terminal ileum, colon, transverse stricture and all of her colonic polyps are consistent with enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma.
