Nasal NK/T cell lymphoma presenting as a lethal midline granuloma
Mehta, Vandana; Balachandran, C.; Bhat, Sudha; Geetha, V. & Fernandes, Donald
Abstract
Nasal NK/T cell lymphomas are aggressive, locally destructive, midfacial, necrotizing lesions. The nonspecific clinical symptoms constitute a major stumbling block in the early diagnosis and management of these lymphomas. We report here a case of probable nasal NK/T cell lymphoma in an apparently healthy male that progressed rapidly in a short span of time and was managed subsequently with chemotherapy and external beam irradiation with which the lesion regressed.
