Pneumatosis coli in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma

Abstract
Two patients with poorly differentiated lymphoma who developed pneumatosis coli are described. In 1 case, the intramural gas was associated with diffuse nodular submucosal deposits of tumor. An annular stricture due to lymphoma was the underlying etiology of the pneumatosis coli in the 2nd case. The pathogenesis of pneumatosis coli in the context of malignant lymphoma is discussed.
