Severe benign LH is unusual in the head and neck region, but the diagnosis should be entertained on the part of the clinician both clinically and histologically when lymphoma is suspectedparticularly in the oral cavity. Most lymphomas of the tongue base manifest as an endogenous mass without membranous change. In addition, patients may notice irregularities on their own, thereby bringing the appearance to the attention of their dentists or hygienists.

Lymphoma is the second most common primary malignancy occurring in the head and neck behind squamous cell carcinoma, while NHL accounts for 6590% of all lymphomas occurring in the head and neck [1, 2] .2030% of NHLs are derived from extra-nodal sites [3] .Nonetheless, NHL with a primary site in the oral cavity is rare, and in the tongue base, even rarer [4, 5]. The number of cases in the present study was low, so further studies will be needed to better understand the relationship between HPV infection and lymphoma of the base of the tongue. Upon examination with direct laryngoscopy a large, multiloculated, exophytic mass was identified, emanating from the oropharynx and extending distally to the level of the supraglottis, occupying >90% of the upper aerodigestive tract.

Ann Diagn Pathol. Article In our case, the late stage of disease, the morphologically blastic variant [44], and involvement of neck lymph nodes were all factors that contributed to poor prognosis of this patient. Generally, MCL patients have a median age of 60years and a striking male predominance [42] .Three of the four cases of MCL including our case, occurred at the base of the tongue.
