Overview
MALT lymphoma was first described by Isaacson and Wright, in 1983.[1]
Historical Perspective
- MALT lymphoma was first described by Isaacson and Wright, in 1983.[1]
- They discovered that primary low-grade gastric B cell lymphomas and immunoproliferative small intestinal disease had more histological features in common with those of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue than with peripheral lymph nodes. Extranodal low-grade lymphomas arising at other mucosal organs, including the salivary gland, lung, and thyroid, showed similar histological and clinical features establishing the term “MALT lymphoma”.
