Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6

Abstract

Majority of Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) cases present as peripheral lymphadenopathy. Here we report a rare case which presented as an isolated growth in the base of tongue without any other signs or symptoms and mimicked squamous cell carcinoma. So far very few cases of isolated incidence of base of tongue NHL are reported. With the histopathological examination and use of IHC marker, we arrived at the diagnosis of NHL of DLBCL (Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma) type.
