title: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the hard palate.
abstract: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma usually involves lymph nodes, but can involve extranodal sites. Oral lymphomas are relatively rare and often difficult to diagnose in a clinical setting. A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the hard palate who had undergone external beam radiation therapy and was found to be well one year following treatment is reported.
