Indolent NK-Cell Lymphoproliferative Disorder of the Gastrointestinal Tract

Preferred Label : Indolent NK-Cell Lymphoproliferative Disorder of the Gastrointestinal Tract;

NCIt synonyms : Lymphomatoid Gastropathy; NK-Cell Enteropathy; NKCE;

NCIt definition : An indolent lymphoproliferative disorder that affects the gastrointestinal tract. The neoplastic lymphocytes have the typical phenotype of NK-cells, are of medium to large size, show mild pleomorphism, and are EBV infection negative. Features that characterize extranodal NK/T-cell lymphomas (e.g., angioinvasion and angiodestruction) are not present.;

Neoplastic status : Undetermined;

NCI Metathesaurus CUI : CL527328;
