case_images: A computerized tomography (CT) scan suggested the presence of multiple soft-tissue density masses in the patient's abdominal cavity, the largest of which was 7.7 cm x 7.2 cm [Figure 1a and b].

case_images: Pathological examination revealed only a few heterotypic cells [Figure 4].
case_images: (a) The gastroscope entered into the abdominal cavity after incision of the full thickness of the gastric wall. The prelabeled lymph node was found, (b) The removed lymph node tissues

case_images: Then, enucleation of the targeted lymph node was performed using an IT knife [Figure 5].
case_images: Immunohistochemical staining: CD3(large cell-); Vimentin(+); PAX-5(-); CD15(-); CD20(large cell+); CD21(+); Ki-67(large cell8%+); CD30(-); CD68(partly+); CK(-); MUM-1(-); CD10(-); Bcl-6(+); Bcl-2(+). The diagnosis was non-Hodgkin lymphoma, germinal center B-cell-like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
