title: MALT lymphoma of nasal mucosa treated with antibiotics.
abstract: Mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas occur in sites other than the gastrointestinal tract and in the early stages respond to treatment with antibiotics. We report a rare case of nasal mucosal MALT lymphoma which responded to treatment with antibiotics and has since then remained in remission.
