Abstract

We describe the very rare case of a 72-year-old woman who had a mass in the floor of the mouth. After admission to our inpatient department, MR imaging suggested that the mass was a tumor of the right sublingual gland. Surgical excision of the sublingual gland tumor was performed with the patient under general anesthesia.The histological diagnosis was follicular lymphoma grade Ⅰ. Follicular lymphoma of the sublingual gland is extremely rare. This is the first report describing a primary follicular lymphoma of sublingual gland in Japan. One year after the operation, the patient remains well, with no evidence of recurrent lymphoma.
