| Core Tip |
This study analyzed 26 cases from Peking Union Medical College Hospital and 130 literature-reported cases of monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL). It found heterogeneous endoscopic manifestations. The Peking Union Medical College Hospital cohort mainly presented with subtle mucosal changes (edema, roughness, villous blunting), which may be early endoscopic signs of MEITL. Ulceration was the main endoscopic feature in the literature cohort, likely indicating disease progression. Multi-site deep biopsy combined with imaging is crucial for early accurate diagnosis of MEITL. Two clinical subtypes (acute aggressive and chronic consumptive) were identified, with distinct symptoms and pathological features, providing value for personalized clinical management. |
