Lymphocytic gastritis (LG) is uncommon and presents histologically with a nonspecific inflammatory pattern. It is most often associated with celiac disease and Helicobacter pylori gastritis and is rarely associated with other conditions including lymphoma. LG is of clinical importance since its recognition should prompt further clinical evaluation for other disorders.
