Primary intestinal T lymphoma with massive eosinophilia

: Primary intestinal T lymphoma with eosinophilia is an infrequent tumour. Its rarity account for the paucity of similar cases recorded in the literature. It affects predominantly middle-aged men and may be associated with ulceration, fistula formation and intestinal perforation with an abdominal mass. Lesions of the intestine with massive tissue eosinophilia may be a difficult diagnostic problem, but this entity displays distinctive histological features. The presence of intense tissue eosinophilia is a T-cell dependent lymphomas response. We describe a case of T lymphoma involving small intestine with massive eosinophilia.
