Lymphoma is a common disease of the head and neck. Mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma constitutes a rare type of extranodal lymphoma. The Waldeyer's ring is one of the most common sites of occurrence, but MALT lymphoma may also arise in salivary glands, lung, stomach, or lacrimal glands. In the oral cavity, it may be confused with swellings from dental infection or sinus inflammation. Often, the patient will seek a dentist because of mobile teeth or because a denture no longer fits. We report a case of a female patient with salivary gland dysfunction and pain of several years' duration, who, after numerous tests and hospitalizations, was diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome. She later developed mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. We discuss the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of this entity. MALT lymphoma is rare in salivary glands. In primary-Sjögren's syndrome, predisposition of the patient for development of malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (4% to 10%) is well established. In this case, long-standing sialadenitis and Sjögren's syndrome seem to be the etiological factors. In cases of chronic infection of salivary glands and the presence of autoimmune syndromes, MALT lymphoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Consults should be called to ophthalmology, rheumatology, and head and neck oncologists for proper workup, staging, and treatment. Show less
