Oral pseudolymphoma: a diagnostic challenge
Pseudolymphoma (PL) is a benign reactive lymphoproliferative disease secondary to known or unknown stimuli mimicking a lymphomatous-appearing picture with potential misdiagnosis of overt lymphoma. A 64-year-old white man was referred for evaluation of ulceration on the left side of the buccal mucosa with 1 week of duration. The medical history revealed Alzheimer disease treated with donepezil and vildagliptin. Regional lymphadenopathy was absent and computerized tomography (CT) scans did not show alterations.
