“…Despite the clinical similarities, the therapeutic procedures and prognosis of these lesions are completely different, and a timely, accurate and non‐invasive pre‐surgical diagnosis would be helpful . With regard to the variety of OCLs, other than small and large B‐cell NHLs and plasmacytoma, peripheral T‐cell NHL and even Hodgkin lymphoma have been observed. Moreover, certain specific entities, such as plasmablastic lymphoma, an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)‐associated high‐grade NHL, have a high incidence in the oral cavity .…”

“…Through a comprehensive review of the literature, we have identified a total of 36 cases of extranodal oral Hodgkin's lymphoma; of these cases, 11 were cases involving the palate or maxilla (excluding the tonsils). Finally, 4 cases of these 11 cases identified were presentations of primary (Stage I) extranodal oral Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the palatal or maxillary soft tissues. However, the 2 earlier cases were reported prior to the introduction of immunohistological profiling, and therefore are not valid diagnoses of Hodgkin's lymphoma.…”

“…Hodgkin's lymphoma and non‐Hodgkin lymphoma differ in a number of key clinical aspects. Hodgkin's lymphomas frequently appear as nodal disease often presenting in cervical and mediastinal nodes, rarely involving extranodal sites, whereas over 40% of non‐Hodgkin's lymphomas are extranodal.…”

Intraoral extranodal Hodgkin's lymphoma is rare. We present the case of a 66‐year‐old gentleman who was treated for necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis of the UR6 tooth by his dentist which failed to resolve. Biopsy and histopathology revealed that this was, in fact, a rare presentation of primary (Stage I) extranodal oral Hodgkin's lymphoma. We present this case, and a review of the relevant literature.

“…The above-mentioned Reed-Stenberg cells are not found in the so-called non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a category that include all the other histopathologic entities that are not related to Hodgkin's disease [4]. The considerable histological variety of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas involves significant classification problems, although from a morphological point of view, we can identify two main forms of NHL:…”

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma affecting the tongue: unusual intra-oral location

et al. 2011

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

IntroductionThe expression non Hodgkin lymphoma is used to cover a wide group of lymphoid neoplasias unrelated to Hodgkin's disease, due to the huge histological variety and the tendency to affect organs and tissues that does not physiologically contain lymphoid cells.The intraoral location is not frequent (3 - 5 percent of cases) and the initial manifestations of the disease rarely take place here.Case presentationWe describe the case of a 73 years old Italian caucasian male who came to our attention with a tongue lesion. The clinical manifestation was macroglossia and bleeding, probably deriving from the tongue-bite injuries.The patient had been complaining of dyspnea for 48 hours.ConclusionA tongue affected by non-Hodgkin's lymphoma rarely occurs. In spite of this, this possibility should always be considered for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions affecting such area.A rapid diagnostic assessment, together with an adequate histopathologic verification, are indeed essential to improve the management and the prognosis of this disease.
