Intraoral extranodal Hodgkin's disease.
A case of extranodal Hodgkin's disease that was limited to the maxillary alveolus has been presented. A team approach was used to diagnose and treat the lesion. After appropriate staging procedures, treatment consisted of local excision and cobalt teletherapy. Follow-up examinations for the past three years have failed to disclose recurrent or new disease.
