Abstract

Lymphomas of the nasal sinuses are relatively uncommon and represent less than 1% of all head and neck malignancies. Most common symptoms are nasal obstruction, epistaxis, rhinorrhea. We report a case of primary extranodal diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in nasal sinuses accompanying with exophthalmos. A 70-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital with exophthalmos and severe septal deviation. We conducted endoscopic biopsy with septoplasty and biopsy result was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. He received chemotherapy(R-CHOP) and radiotherapy. At follow-up, he remained free of disease.
