Summary: | Nasal-type extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL-NT) is a special subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma derived from natural killer cells or cytotoxic T cells.

We analyzed the clinicopathological features, differential diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and the causes of misdiagnosis to provide a diagnostic basis for dentists to make better clinical diagnosis and treatment. |
