BACKGROUND: Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) is a rare primary intestinal T-cell lymphoma, previously known as enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma type II. MEITL is an aggressive T-cell lymphoma with a poor prognosis and high mortality rate. The known major complications of MEITL are intestinal perforation and obstruction. Here, we present a case of MEITL that was diagnosed following upper gastrointestinal bleeding from an ulcerative duodenal lesion, with recurrence-free survival for 5 years.
CASE SUMMARY: A 68-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with melena and mild anemia. An urgent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed bleeding from an ulcerative lesion in the transverse part of the duodenum, for which hemostatic treatment was performed. MEITL was diagnosed following repeated biopsies of the lesion, and cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) chemotherapy was administered. She achieved complete remission after eight full cycles of CHOP therapy. At the last follow-up examination, EGD revealed a scarred ulcer and 18Fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed no abnormal FDG accumulation. The patient has been in complete remission for 68 mo after initial diagnosis.
CONCLUSION: To rule out MEITL, it is important to carefully perform histological examination when bleeding from a duodenal ulcer is observed.
