Lack of Association between <i>Chlamydophila psittaci</i> and Ocular Adnexal MALT Lymphoma in Korean Patients—Is the Geographic or Genetic Difference Significant?
<i>Clamydophila psittaci</i> (<i>C. psittaci</i>) has been proposed to be an etiologic factor in extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) in the ocular adnexa. However, the pathogenetical significance of the infection has not been...
