Does anyone have experience with MALT Lymphoma with lung tumors?
I was just diagnosed after 3 years of trying to find answers for lung masses and symptoms. I'm having trouble finding information on MALT with lung masses.
I'm wondering about staging and treatment. Any sharing of experiences would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi and welcome to the site. Everyone on here is so nice, helpful and supportive. I have/had DLBCL and had treatments of RCHOP chemo. I've been in remission for about a year now. I hope you find the answers you seek. Kelly
I’ve been in remission for four years now!!
I had a cryogenic bronchoscopy which led to a definitive diagnosis. Surgery and radiation were out for me because both lungs were involved.
Terri: did you have the bronchoscopy to confirm your diagnosis and the PRT scan to understand your SUV? I know Malt lymphoma is sensitive to radiation. That is why it might be tge same course for you. Pulmonary malt lymphoma is considered inoperable.
Sounds like you’re in good hands! Wishing you the best!
Can nobody be considered cured after surgery for Primary Cutaneous MZL extra nodal B-Cell NHL?
Can malt lymphoma or Rituximab cause hair loss?
Has anyone had a raised area that is itchy that was biopsy and found to be cancer?
