Abstract

MALT lymphoma are extranodal marginal lymphoma arising from lymph tissue associated with mucous membranes. Their location in the lacrimal sac is rare and is a cause of secondary lacrymonasal obstruction. We report a case of MALT lymphoma located in both lacrimal sacs, which resulted in complete remission following systemic chemotherapy combined with rituximab.

Résumé

Les lymphomes du MALT sont des lymphomes extranodaux de la zone marginale, dérivant du tissu lymphoïde associé aux muqueuses. Leurs localisations au niveau des sacs lacrymaux sont rares et constituent une cause d’obstruction secondaire du conduit lacrymonasal. Nous rapportons un cas présentant un lymphome B de type MALT, localisé au niveau des deux sacs lacrymaux chez qui une chimiothérapie systémique, associée au rituximab, a permis une complète rémission maintenue.
