abstract: 114 non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) have been studied in HCU of Salamanca during a ten years period (1977-1987). Fifty seven of them had a head and neck location. According to this we divided this group of patients in primary or secondary sitting in relation to the head and neck affectation. We also distinguish which are the most frequently involved areas; lymph nodes and extranodal presentations, divided into Waldeyer's and no-Waldeyer's one. We present the clinical features and first affects symptoms. Histological materials was reviewed by a pathologist and a diagnosis aspect according to the working formulation of the National Cancer Institute for the NHL.
