抄録

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, an extranodal low-grade lymphoma arising in the stomach, lung, salivary gland, and thyroid gland has attracted attention recently. We encountered a case of MALT lymphoma arising in the submaxillary gland. A 61-year-old woman presented with a palpable 20×15mm mass on her right lower jaw. After a diagnosis of submaxillary gland tumor was established by ultrasonography, computed tomography, and 67Ga scintigraphy, the tumor was resected. It arose from the anteroinferior part of the submaxillary gland, and had a distinct border.<br>The cross-section revealed a yellow-white solid mass. Histological examination revealed invasion by small to medium-sized lymphoma cells resembling centrocytes.<br>The cells were accompanied by lymphoepithelial lesions in the submaxillary gland. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of MALT lymphoma arising in the submaxillary gland was made. Twelve months have passed since the resection with no evidence of recurrence.
