Abstract

Extranodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma originating from oropharynx is very rare. To our knowledge, no case of isolated extranodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma originating from oropharynx has been reported in Turkey so far. Therefore, our case is important. In this article, we present a case of isolated extranodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma originating from oropharynx in a 28-year-old male patient with complaints of progressive sore throat and swallowing difficulty in the light of the literature. Extranodal natural killer T-cell lymphoma should not be forgotten in the differential diagnosis of ulcerated lesions that are resistant to treatment and infiltrating the mucosa in the lesions of oropharynx.

Özet

Orofarenks kaynaklı ektranodal doğal öldürücü T hücreli lenfoma çok nadirdir. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla, Türkiye'den izole orofarenks kaynaklı ekstranodal doğal öldürücü T hücreli lenfoma olgusu bugüne kadar bildirilmemiştir. Bu nedenle, olgumuz önemlidir. Bu yazıda, ilerleyici boğaz ağrısı ve yutma güçlüğü şikayetleri olan 28 yaşındaki bir erkek hastada izole orofarenks kaynaklı ekstranodal doğal öldürücü T hücreli lenfoma olgusu güncel literatür eşliğinde sunuldu. Orofarenks lezyonlarında tıbbi tedaviye dirençli ve mukozaya sızan ülserli lezyonların ayırıcı tanısında ekstranodal doğal öldürücü T hücreli lenfoma unutulmamalıdır.
