[A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma manifesting an eyelid tumor as a major symptom].
It is well known that a majority of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in the head and neck region arises from the Waldeyer's ring and neck lymph nodes. This report covers a rare case of a 69 year-old male with a symptom like the Mikulicz syndrome, who was diagnosed as having the NHL of B-cell type. This patient has been in complete remission following local radiotherapy for the tumor of the eyelid.
