Nasal dissemination of a single-clone IgH-rearranged conjunctival MALT lymphoma through the nasolacrimal duct: A case report

Abstract: Abstract. The aim of the present study was to report a rare case of single-clone, immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH)-rearranged mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in the conjunctiva, with nasal cavity dissemination through the nasolacrimal duct. A 24-year-old female was diagnosed with MALT lymphoma of the nasal cavity at the Department of Otolaryngology, Wan Fang Medical Center, Taipei Medical University (Tapei, Taiwan) in October 2008. A biopsy of the relapsing conjunctival lesion revealed a MALT… Show more

“…Metallic implant-associated lymphoma is EBV-positive and commonly occurs without a tumorous mass. Furthermore, few cases of conjunctival lymphoma that spread to the nasal cavity through the nasolacrimal duct have been reported 4,6 . Yet, extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT caused by a nasal implant has never been reported before.…”

“…[3][4][5] Gillies temporal approach has been widely used to reduce zygoma fractures. [6][7][8][9] Traditionally, it is the preferred method to reduce the isolated zygomatic arch fracture. It can be combined with other approaches, such as subciliary and intraoral incisions for more complex zygomatic fractures, so-called tripod fractures.…”
