Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Arising De Novo in Unilateral Tonsil

摘要

Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphomas, account for a considerable fraction of lymphoid malignancies. But, the primary origin of this neoplasm in the head and neck region is comparatively less frequent. De novo origin of this neoplasm in a unilateral tonsil together with its notoriety for heterogeneous morphologic appearance and biological behaviour make it an interesting entity. Keeping this in view, we report a case of Diffuse Large Cell Lymphoma arising de novo in a unilateral tonsil in a 38 year old male.
