  • Title: Orbital cellulitis or lymphoma? A diagnostic challenge.
    Author: Salam A, Saldana M, Zaman N.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2005 Sep; 119(9):740-2. PubMed ID: 16156921.
    Abstract:
    We present a case report of an aggressive natural killer T cell lymphoma in a police officer who presented with combined features of orbital cellulitis and mid-facial destruction. However, his initial diagnosis was confused with other disease conditions that had overlapping features. This emphasizes the significance of clinical alertness and adequate tissue sampling; this can have a great impact on early diagnosis and treatment.
