Abstract

Extranodal marginal-zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphomas) frequently arise in the context of autoimmune disease or chronic bacterial infection.1,2 The resolution of early gastric MALT lymphoma after eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection is well documented. We report a case of primary MALT lymphoma of the bladder that resolved macroscopically after antibiotic treatment of chronic urinary tract infection.
