Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical features and survival outcomes of primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphomas (PGINHL) in pediatric and adolescent population, we conducted a population-based cohort study. METHODS All pediatric and adolescent patients with PGINHL diagnosed between 2000 and 2019 were identified using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Kaplane-Meier estimations were used to generate survival curves based on various criteria. To compare survival curves, the log-rank test was applied. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was developed to investigate the effect of each component on overall survival. RESULTS A total of 334 pediatric and adolescent with PGINHL patients were identified. The median age at diagnosis was 12 years (range 1.0-19 years). Tumors were most commonly found in the small bowel (47.3%), followed by the large bowel (42.8%) and the stomach (9.9%). Overall, the most common histological subtype was Burkitt lymphoma (56.9%), followed by diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (27.8%). Overall survival rates for all patients were 92.2% at 5- year and 91.6% at 10- year, respectively. The Cox proportional hazard regression revealed that only chemotherapy was an important independent predictor in this model. Patients with chemotherapy have a higher survival rate than those without. CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed that only chemotherapy was found to be the most important predictor of the OS in pediatric and adolescent PGINHL, providing critical information for therapeutic care.

[PMID: 34863135 PMCID: PMC8642859 DOI: 10.1186/s12887-021-02944-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2021] [Accepted: 10/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Whether surgery can improve the prognosis of patients with primary pediatric gastrointestinal lymphoma (PPGL) who experienced bowel perforation remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the prognosis of such patients. Methods Nine patients pathologically diagnosed with PPGL who experienced perforation at our center between January 2010 and December 2020 were enrolled and divided into two groups: those with perforation during (n = 4) and before (n = 5) chemotherapy. Their medical records were reviewed, and long-term follow-up was conducted by telephone in February 2021. Results All patients with perforation during chemotherapy were diagnosed with PPGL in the outpatient department. The mean time from outpatient visit to chemotherapy was 17.3 ± 6.1 days. Two patients experienced perforation during the first chemotherapy regimen and received conservative treatment, while the others developed perforation after multiple chemotherapy regimens and underwent surgery. All of the patients received regular chemotherapy and survived for a mean follow-up time of 3.8 ± 1.9 years. No patient with perforation before chemotherapy had a definite diagnosis in the outpatient department. Among these patients, 4 experienced perforation and underwent surgery, of whom 3 developed perforation-related complications and died; the other recurred after chemotherapy. Only the patient who received conservative treatment was diagnosed with PPGL before chemotherapy, received regular chemotherapy, and survived without a recurrence for 1.0 year. Conclusion Prompt diagnosis and chemotherapy improve the prognosis of PPGL. Surgery does not affect the prognosis of patients with perforation during chemotherapy but may accelerate disease progression in patients with perforation before chemotherapy.

Abstract
Non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas (NHL) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid neoplasms with complex etiopathology, rich symptomatology, and a variety of clinical courses, therefore requiring different therapeutic approaches. The hypothesis that an infectious agent may initiate chronic inflammation and facilitate B lymphocyte transformation and lymphogenesis has been raised in recent years. Viruses, like EBV, HTLV-1, HIV, HCV and parasites, like Plasmodium falciparum, have been linked to the development of lymphomas. The association of chronic Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, Borrelia burgdorferi with cutaneous MALT lymphoma and Chlamydophila psittaci with ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma is well documented. Recent studies have indicated that other infectious agents may also be relevant in B-cell lymphogenesis such as Coxiella burnettii, Campylobacter jejuni, Achromobacter xylosoxidans, and Escherichia coli. The aim of the present review is to provide a summary of the current literature on infectious bacterial agents associated with B-cell NHL and to discuss its role in lymphogenesis, taking into account the interaction between infectious agents, host factors, and the tumor environment.
