“…Two case series were excluded. Velez and Hogge [44] reported only B-cell NHLs, and Kemp et al [45] grouped NHLs arising in the maxillary alveolus together with those arising in the hard palate. For 3 of the 16 case series [30, 36, 37] that did not include a case arising within the maxillary alveolus, “Nil” is entered in the “relative period prevalence” column in Table 1.…”

ObjectivesExtranodal lymphomas affecting the head and neck infrequently arise within the jaw bones. Although clinical examination and conventional radiography may initially suffice for such lesions arising within the mandible, those arising within the maxillary alveolus generally require cross-sectional imaging because of the complex anatomy of this region. This study was performed to determine the prevalence, demographic characteristics, and clinical presentations of these lesions and the imaging modalities used for their diagnosis.Study designA systematic review (SR) on case series and another SR on case reports were performed to investigate the demographic, clinical, and radiological features of extranodal lymphomas arising within the maxillary alveolus.ResultsMost case series were derived from just four nations, whereas the case reports were derived from a wider range of ethnicities. The more detailed case reports significantly reported at least one imaging modality. Most patients were aware of their lesions for nearly 2 months before presentation. The most frequent symptom was swelling. Most case reports included a provisional diagnosis, the most frequent of which was dental infection followed by squamous cell carcinoma.DiscussionExtranodal lymphomas arising within the maxillary alveolus were sufficiently frequent in four communities to be reported in two or more case series, and the occasional single case report indicated that such lesions are more widespread globally. Although the SR on case series revealed differences in the relative period prevalence and maxillary/mandibular ratio, the SR on case reports revealed details of the clinical presentation and imaging modalities used.

“…DLBCL has an uncertain etiology that includes long-term immunosuppression, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, exposure to pesticides and radiation, Sjögren syndrome, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Moreover, viruses including Epstein-Barr virus, human T-cell lymphotropic virus, human herpes virus, HIV, and hepatitis B and C, and microorganisms such as chlamydia and Helicobacter pylori, are also included in the DLBCL etiology (8)(9)(10)(11).…”

The Waldeyer's ring shares many of the histopatological tendencies with the rest of mucosa-related lymphoid tissue, such as a high DLBCL

B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and classical Burkitt's lymphoma: A case report and review

B-cell lymphoma, unclassifiable, with features intermediate between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and classical Burkitt's lymphoma (BL), is a diagnostic provisional category in the World Health Organization 2008 classification of lymphomas. This category was designed as a measure to accommodate borderline cases that cannot be reliably classified into a single distinct disease entity after all available morphological, immunophenotypical and molecular studies have been performed. Typically, these cases share features intermediate between DLBCL and classical BL or include characteristics of both lymphomas. The rarity of such cases poses a tremendous challenge to both pathologists and oncologists because its differential diagnosis has direct implications for management strategies. In this article, we present a “classical unclassifiable lymphoma with features intermediate between DLBCL and BL” in a young male patient and review of literature.
