An oversight by the author led to the following error:

In the discussion section, paragraph 4, line 1 it is stated that MALT lymphoma comprises 25-50% of all new lymphoma cases.

This is wrong: Extranodal lymphomas comprise 25-50% of all new lymphomas but MALT lymphoma comprises only 8% of all new lymphoma cases.
