Abstract
Colonic lymphoma is a rare complication of ulcerative colitis. We report two cases of B cell colonic lymphoma occurring in two patients who had a left-sided ulcerative colitis for 7 and 24 years respectively. The diagnosis was made during surgery in one case and at colonoscopy in the other. Complete remission was achieved after surgery and chemotherapy with a 8-year and 15-month follow-up respectively.
