 I reviewed 191 cases of ATL/L (adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma) for gastrointestinal lesions which develop on the basis of immunodeficiency. The macroscopic features of gastrointestinal lesions developed by ATL-cell infiltration were different among organs affected. Mixed type was most frequently seen in the stomach and multiple elevated lesions were most frequently observed in the small intestine. There was a higher tendency in ATL/L cases towards the formation of diffuse or multiple lesions than in non-ATL/L cases of malignant lymphoma of the gastrointestinal tract.

 Opportunistic infection of the digestive organs was seen in 4.2 % of the cases. Immunodeficiency caused by myelosuppression by chemotherapies or by progression of ATL/L itself was thought to be the background of opportunistic infection. It is known that a mild immunodeficiency state exists from an early stage or carrier state of HTLV-1 infection. Strongyloides infection related to this mild immunodeficiency state and the complication of cancer of other organs were also referred to.
