 Four cases of malignant lymphoma are reported here that arose primarily from the small intestine.

 Case 1: A woman aged 71 came to our hospital on account of abdominal pain and emacipation. A movable tumor was palpated then on the right side of the umbilicus. It was as large as a man's fist. X-ray examination revealed in the middle part of the small intestine irregular rigidity of the marginal contour with a picture of mucosal destruction. The resected segment showed a 15 cm long tumor. Histologically it was lymphocytic lymphosarcoma. Although two metastases were seen in the regional lymph nodes, she is in good health two years after the operation.

 Case 2: A 43-year-old woman, who had complained of intermittent pain in the upper abdomen of seven months' duration, was found by x-ray to have an oval shadow defect 5 cm in the greatest diameter in the proximal part of the ascending colon. At laparotomy, a tumor located in the distal part of the cecum was found to have caused intussusception in the ascending colon. Ileocececotomy revealed a polypoid tumor, measuring 3.5×3.5×2.7 cm, in the cecum 8 cm proximal from the ileocecal valve. Histologically it was lymphoblastic lymphosarcoma with metastases to the regional lymph nodes.

 Case 3: A 16-year-old boy had been ill since one year before. He was finally hospitalized on account of abdominal pain and fever. Before the admission he had twice undergone resection of the terminal part of the ileum. After hospitalization his general condition became increasingly worse. Three months later he died from hematemesis and melena. Necropsy disclosed reticulum cell sarcoma primarily of intestinal origin with metastases throughout the body.

 Case 4: A woman at age 64 had been ill since two years and three months before. With chief complaints of high temperature and diarrhoea she was hospitalized, but she soon died from hematemesis and melena. Necropsy showed reticulum cell sarcoma presumably arising primarily out of the small intestine. General metastases were noted. In all cases here presented, x-ray study failed to make an accurate diagnosis of malignant lymphoma.
