Perforated small intestine in a patient with T-cell lymphoma; a rare cause of peritonitis by Petrişor Banu, Vlad D. Constantin, Florian Popa, Mihaela F. Nistor

“…The nonspecific clinical manifestations of intestinal lymphomas make from diagnosis a difficult procedure. Due to the fact that surgery does not have a definite place in the treatment of the small intestinal lymphomas (for cases complicated with perforation), and beyond the morbidity associated with the surgery performed in emergency conditions, prognosis of these patients is finally given by the possibility to control the systemic disease through adjuvant therapy.…”
