Abstract:
Twenty-two patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the nasopharynx, paranasal sinuses or palate were treated between 1952 and 1980. The histology was reviewed by one histopathologist and 77% of cases were classified as grade 2 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Forty-five per cent of patients relapsed after initial treatment and 41% of all patients died from lymphoma. The 5-year survival ranged from 22% for the nasopharynx to 80% for the palate.
