Oral kavitenin malign lezyonları yaygın değildir ve bütün oral malignitelerin 3.5 %’ ini oluştururlar. Literatürde, az sayıda primer olarak ağızda ortaya çıkan mukoza ile ilişkili lenfoid doku (MALT) vakası bildirilmiştir. Bu olgu sunumunda, damak ve tonsilde gelişen MALT lenfomaya tanı konulma aşamalarını anlattık.
