Diagnosis
Hides the diagnosis, imaging findings, outcome, take-home points and correlation photos so you can read the images blind.
Gastric lymphoma, large cell
Confirmed
Imaging findings
- The gastric wall is markedly thickened (>1 cm) and irregular with loss of normal wall layering, most pronounced in the antrum and near the pylorus.
- The gastric wall was sampled via ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration.
Key take-home points
Marked gastric wall thickening with loss of layering. While neoplasia is prioritized, consider pythiosis as a differential for this kind of gastric mass in endemic areas.
