Core Tip	Follicular lymphoma (FL) occurring in the duodenum has already been established as a disease concept within the category of FL. In response to this, clinical characteristics of the colorectal FL, including its treatment and long-term outcome, are poorly understood owing to the rarity. This study aimed to clarify the characteristic clinical features of the colorectal FL. In the present study, colorectal FL progresses indolently, as with cases of nodal or duodenal lesions, and the overall survival was good because it was sensitive to chemotherapy with administration of bendamustine and rituximab even after the disease progressed without initial treatment.
