Abstract

Malignant tumors of small bowel contribute only 1.1 to 2.4 of all gastro intestinal tract malignancies. Among these, lymphomas contribute 10 -15. Of all lymphomas primary Gastrointestinal Lymphomas account for 5, of which one third occurs from small bowel. Its manifestation as perforation is uncommon. We report a case of small bowel lymphoma presenting as perforation.
