    Author: Chaudhary SV, Karnik ND, Sabnis GR, Patil MV, Bradoo RA.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 2011 Feb; 59():112-4. PubMed ID: 21751648.
    Abstract:
    A 26 years old female presented with fever, nasal stuffiness with blood stained purulent discharge, nasal twang in voice along with non-healing palatal ulcers since three months. Examination revealed a paramidline perforation in the hard palate causing oronasal fistula formation. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry suggested a diagnosis of extranodal Natural Killer (NK)/T cell lymphoma. Multi-agent chemotherapy was instituted. We report this extremely rare case of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) of the extranodal NK/T cell variety presenting as palatal perforation.
