Overview

When evaluating a patient for MALT lymphoma, you should take a detailed history of the presenting symptom (onset, duration, and progression), other associated symptoms, and a thorough family and past medical history review. Other specific areas of focus when obtaining the history include the review of common associated conditions such as H. pyroli associated gastritis and autoimmune disorders, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Sjogren’s syndrome, and Celiac disease. Symptoms of MALT lymphoma depend on the location of the tumor: gastric and non gastric. Symptoms of MALT lymphoma include epigastric pain, fatigue, heartburn, fever, cough with blood in sputum, shortness of breath, and/or lump in the superior lateral quadrant of the orbit, breast, neck, or salivary gland.
