“…Primary lymphomas of the Waldeyer’s ring account for 5% to 10% of all lymphomas and more than 50% of all primary extranodal lymphomas of the head and neck [2]. The tonsil is the most frequently involved site, accounting for more than half of Waldeyer’s ring lymphomas, followed by the nasopharynx and the base of the tongue [3]. Lymphoid tissue in the Waldeyer’s ring is not acquired, and the same types of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that occur in the lymph nodes also occur in the Waldeyer’s ring.…”

“…Lymphoid tissue in the Waldeyer’s ring is not acquired, and the same types of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that occur in the lymph nodes also occur in the Waldeyer’s ring. Diffuse large B cell lymphoma is the most common type, accounting for 60% to 84% of Waldeyer’s ring lymphomas, and less common types include follicular lymphoma, Burkitt’s lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and extra-nodal marginal zone lymphoma [3]. The most common primary lymphomas of the nasopharynx are mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and small lymphocytic lymphoma [4].…”

Patient: Male, 81 Final Diagnosis: Mantle cell lymphoma Symptoms: Dificulty in swallowing and pain in the right ear Medication: — Clinical Procedure: Otorhinolaryngology panendoscopy • biopsy of the tumors Specialty: Otolaryngology Objective: Rare disease Background: Radiation, specifically ionizing radiation, causes broad-spectrum gene damage, including double-strand DNA breaks, single DNA strand breaks, cross links, and individual base lesions, thus causing chromosomal translocations, deletions, point mutations, and, consequently, various types of cancer. Radiation also causes genomic instability in cells, which enhances the rate of mutations in the descendants of the irradiated cell after many generations of normal replications. Case Report: We report the first case of mantle cell lymphoma of the torus tubarius, and the first CD10-positive mantle cell lymphoma of the Waldeyer’s ring. Mantle cell lymphoma appeared 65 years after treatment of chronic sinusitis with nasopharyngeal radium irradiation. Conclusions: On the basis of the medical literature about atomic bomb survivors, nuclear plant workers, and radiologists exposed to radiation, and our case, we conclude that radiation can, in a very small percentage of exposed individuals, cause non-Hodgkin lymphoma: in 0.24% of atomic bomb survivors and in at least 0.13% of the patients treated with nasopharyngeal radium irradiation. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma can occur many decades after radiation exposure, and individuals treated with nasopharyngeal radium irradiation, usually in their childhood, need continuing follow-up.

“…El anillo de Waldeyer es el segundo lugar de incidencia extranodal del LNH en el tracto gastrointestinal, sin embargo los linfomas primarios de la cavidad oral son menos comunes. La cavidad oral es el sitio primario de aparición de aproximadamente el 2-3% de todos los linfomas extranodales (1,5,6). El LNH de la…”

Introducción: Los linfomas son neoplasias del sistema linfoide clasificadas en Hodgkin y No-Hodgkin. Los linfomas de cabeza y cuello se originan en tejido linfoide regional, pero también en otros sitios como encía, paladar, etc.Objetivo: Describir el Linfoma Anaplásico de Células Grandes (LACG) como un subgrupo de linfomas No-Hodkin de células T, positivo o negativo para la expresión de las proteínas CD30 y AKL, el cual puede afectar numerosas partes del cuerpo incluyendo la cavidad oral. Se reporta un caso de LACG de células T CD30+ALK+.Diseño: Reporte de caso.Metodología: Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática en PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, LILACS y Ovid. Se seleccionaron los artículos que reportaron casos de Linfoma No-Hodkin de células T con manifestaciones orales, limitándose al idioma Inglés. Reportamos el caso de una paciente de 9 años con LACG de células T, CD30+ALK+ con manifestaciones orales y sistémicas.Resultados: De los artículos obtenidos ninguno reporta casos de LACG de células T CD30+ ALK+ con manifestaciones orales, por la cual no fue posible realizar el análisis sistemático. Discusión: El LACG representa 2-3% de los Linfomas NoHodkin, se divide en cutáneo primario y sistémico (ALK+/ALK-). El ALK+ también puede afectar sitios extranodales. Los pacientes a menudo presentan síntomas sistémicos, como fiebre y sudoración nocturna. Los casos de LACG sistémico primario ALK+ suelen responder bien a la quimioterapia y tienen mejor pronóstico que los casos ALK-.Conclusiones: El Linfoma anaplásico de células grandes de células T, D30+ALK+ es una entidad poco frecuente en la cavidad oral
