title: Oral Cavity Lymphoid Neoplasms. A Fifteen-Year Single Institution Review.
abstract: Although relatively rare, lymphomas can and do present within the oral cavity and can represent either the initial presentation or secondary involvement in the setting of systemic disease. Our objective was to conduct a retrospective search of the surgical pathology database at our institution to review all oral biopsy specimens diagnosed as either a lymphoma or plasma cell neoplasm over the past 15 years. Based on our search, we identified 47 cases. We report here the type of neoplasm, location, patient age and gender, and available pertinent clinical information.
