Lymphomas are hematological malignant diseases originating from lymphoid tissues and organs. Lymphoreticular cells are found especially in the lymph nodes, so often the tumoral enlargement of the lymph nodes is the leading clinical symptom. Approximately 60% of all lymphomas are non-Hodgkin and 40% are Hodgkin lymphoma. Hodgkin lymphoma is clinically manifested by painless lymph nodes swollen in the neck, armpit, or groin, with unexplained weight loss, fever, weakness, fatigue, night sweats, itching, cough, difficulty breathing, or chest pain. Involvement of gastrointestinal tract organs is extremely rare in Hodgkin lymphoma, but if gastrointestinal system involvement occurs, generally, one site is affected and the patient's prognosis is poor. In this article, a child with Hodgkin lymphoma presenting in relapse with very rare gastric involvement is presented and discussed in the light of the literature.
