This study aims to describe their main clinical and pathological characteristics and identify poor prognostic factors.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n A retrospective observational study of all patients with histological diagnosis of small bowel lymphoma between January 2010 and December 2020 was performed.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n We included 40 patients, with male predominance (60%) and mean age of 60.7 years. The ileum was the most common location, and the most common histological subtypes were follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Clinical presentation was variable from asymptomatic patients (30%) to acute surgical complications (35%) including perforation, intestinal obstruction, ileal intussusception, or severe bleeding. Diagnosis was established by endoscopy in 22 patients (55%), and the most common findings included polyps, single mass, diffuse infiltration, or ulceration, whereas 18 (45%) required surgery because of acute presentations or tumor resection, and lymphoma was diagnosed postoperatively. Surgery was curative in one-third of those patients. Median survival was 52 months. Acute presentation (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.001), symptomatic disease (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.003), advanced stage (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.008), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.007), anemia (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.006), hypoalbuminemia (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.02), elevated C-reactive protein (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001), and absence of treatment response (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001) were significant predictors of mortality.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Small bowel lymphoma is a rare malignancy with diverse clinical and endoscopic presentations that require a high index of suspicion. Primary factors associated with worse outcome included acute presentation, advanced stage, histological subtype, biochemical abnormalities, and absence of treatment response.<\/jats:p>\n
