[Nodular paragranuloma (Hodgkin's disease) of the tonsil].
Primitive involvement of the palatine tonsil with a nodular paragranuloma (nodular subtype of Hodgkin's malady with lymphocytic predominance) is rarely found, being larger in number the cases associated with simultaneous occurrence in other organs. In the paper the AA. report one of this instances sitting solitarily in the palatine amygdala (stadium IA). Furthermore a bibliographic review about Waldeyer's ring lymphoma and particularly on nodular Hodgkin's paragranuloma is displayed.
