Head and neck extranodal lymphomas are rare. Waldeyer lymphatic ring is the most common localisation of these lymphomas, followed by oral cavity and parothoid glands. We have done a retrospective study of patients with extranodal lymphomas diagnosed in our hospital between 1991 and 1999. We have included in this study 23 patients, 15 males and 9 females. We have used the REAL classification. All of them have been non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The rhinopharynx has been the most affected region, followed by the palatine tonsils and oral cavity. Most of them were of medium degree and they were in the initial stages. The presentation symptoms varied depending on the localisation. The age, stage and histologic degree were important for the treatment election.
头颈部结外淋巴瘤较为罕见。瓦尔代尔淋巴环是这些淋巴瘤最常见的发病部位，其次是口腔和腮腺。我们对1991年至1999年在我院诊断为结外淋巴瘤的患者进行了一项回顾性研究。本研究纳入了23例患者，其中男性15例，女性9例。我们采用了REAL分类法。所有患者均为非霍奇金淋巴瘤。鼻咽部是受影响最严重的区域，其次是腭扁桃体和口腔。大多数患者病情为中度，且处于初始阶段。临床表现症状因发病部位而异。年龄、分期和组织学分级对治疗方案的选择很重要。
