Abstract
A 31 year-old woman with mixed cellularity Hodgkin's disease with isolated tonsilar involvement is reported. Local radiotherapy was given, and the patient remained assymptomatic, without evidence of disease 16 months from the time of diagnosis. After a review of the literature only 17 well-documented cases of Hodgkin's disease arising in the nasopharynx have been found. After reviewing this data, we suggest that systematic examination of the Waldeyer's ring should always be performed in cases of Hodgkin's disease arising in the laterocervical lymph nodes.
