Abstract
Endoscopic findings in primary or secondary intestinal lymphoma are non-specific, which can lead to finding a polyp, an ulcer or a completely normal mucosa. As a matter of fact, this makes having a high clinical suspicion with only the endoscopic technique, quite difficult. Due to this reason, we believe that either taking random biopsies or biopsies from visible lesions of affected sections in another imaging tests, should be indicated in order to increase the diagnostic capacity of the endoscopic technique.
