We report a relatively rare case of malignant lymphoma in a patient with ulcerative colitis. A 31-year-old woman visited our hospital for right cervical lymphadenopathy associated with common cold-like symptoms. She had been diagnosed as having ulcerative colitis at the age of 19 years and received treatment with salazosulfapyridine and prednisolone intermittently. CT examination revealed enlarged lymph nodes in the cervical, supraclavicular, and mediastinal lymph node regions. Histopathological examination yielded a diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (peripheral T-cell lymphoma) , Stage IIB. She was treated with six cycles of combination chemotherapy with the CHOP regimen (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) , followed subsequently by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. No evidence of relapse of ulcerative colitis was observed during the period of chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
