Abstract: Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of primary non-Hodgkins lymphoma in the nose and pharynx. Methods The clinical data of 17 patients with pathologically confirmed non-Hodgkins lymphoma of the nose and pharynx were retrospectively reviewed. Results Six patients with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses showed nasal obstruction, nasal discharge, bloody rhinorrhea, malformation of the external nose, or hearing loss. Four patients with nasopharyngeal non-Hodgkins lymphoma presented with tinnitus and hearing loss. Seven patients with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in the oropharynx reported foreign body sensation in the throat, pharyngalgia, and dysphagia. The clinical manifestations of primary non-Hodgkins lymphoma in the nose and pharynx were non-specific. There was a large amount of necrotic tissue covering the surface of the neoplasm. In three patients, a biopsy was performed more than once before non-Hodgkins lymphoma was confirmed. Conclusion Diagnosis of primary non-Hodgkins lymphoma in the nose and pharynx is often missed. An accurate diagnosis is best achieved by pathological biopsy.
