A member asked:
Could lymphoma be diagnosed with a small bowel ot colon biopsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If it's there: Lymphomas of the gut present as masses visible on imaging. Biopsy will confirm the diagnosis. If you have a lymphoma elsewhere, a dominant mass will be discovered soon enough and can be biopsied. Here's a stomach lymphoma of the "maltoma" subtype.
