The authors have read with great interest the recently published article "Colon lymphomas: an analysis of our experience over the last 23 years" by Martín Domínguez V et al., a single center retrospective review of 29 patients diagnosed with colon lymphoma. The present report describes a case of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) of the cecum that aims to improve the knowledge regarding this unusual clinical and endoscopic entity.
