Traumatic (eosinophilic) granuloma of oral soft tissues: a report of two cases with pseudo-lymphomatous features.
Two cases originally diagnosed as extra-nodal lymphomas occurring in lingual and buccal mucosa which subsequently were reclassified as variants of traumatic granuloma are reported. One case may have been associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. Extra-nodal lymphoma in such sites is very uncommon and the possibility of traumatic granuloma with a pseudo-lymphomatous appearance must be considered when making such a diagnosis.
