Abstract
Combined therapy is an independent prognostic factor for long-term survival in small intestinal lymphoma. Gross resection is recommended in patients with small intestinal lymphoma and leads to improved PFS without significantly increasing the risk of complications. Emergency surgery does not lead to poor prognosis. However, caution is warranted in the management of all patients, because of the high risk of post-operative complications and potential for early mortality.
