Abstract

Synchronous presentation of a colonic adenocarcinoma and lymphoma is extremely rare. We describe here, the sixth observation of a marginal zone B-cell lymphoma, which was incidentally diagnosed in a 77-year-old patient, who was operated for adenocarcinoma of hepatic flexure. This case shows the importance to be aware of this rare association and highlights the dilemma of its management.
