Abstract

Gastrointestinal lymphomas comprise a group of distinct clinicopathological entities of B- or T- cell type, with primary gastrointestinal Hodgkin’s lymphoma being extremely uncommon. The gastrointestinal tract is the predominant site of extra-nodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma accounting for 30-40% of all extra- nodal lymphomas.1 Most common non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma causing intussusception is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We herein report a rare case of ileo-colic Intussusception due to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a 42-year-old female. Computed tomography showed ileo-colic intussusception. Open hemicolectomy with ileo-colic anastomosis was done with postoperative chemotherapy.
