Gastric MALT Lymphoma and Helicobacter pylori

Pathogen Identification

  • The primary pathogen associated with MALT (Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) lymphoma of the stomach is Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori).

Pathophysiological Mechanism

  • H. pylori infection induces chronic inflammation and stimulates the accumulation of acquired lymphoid tissue in the gastric mucosa.
  • Persistent antigenic stimulation by the bacteria drives the monoclonal proliferation of B-lymphocytes, eventually leading to low-grade or high-grade B-cell lymphoma.

Clinical Management Implications

  • Eradication of H. pylori using targeted antimicrobial and anti-secretory therapy often results in the complete regression of early-stage gastric MALT lymphoma.
  • Nutritional and biochemical support to restore gastric mucosal integrity and immune function is critical during and after pathogen clearance.
