Abstract

Diffuse large cell lymphoma B (LDCBG) is the most common type of lymphoma. It´s clinical presentation can be nodal or extranodal and it’s symptoms depend where the tumor is located and whether is associated or not with an immunodeficiency disease. We present an atypical presentation of a LDCBG in a very unusual location. It´s important to consider these kind of appearance, as they can mimic other oral pathological processes, delaying their correct diagnosis and therefore an appropriate treatment
