Most patients respond well to chemotherapy, which may be combined with radiotherapy but relapses are frequent.</p><p>We report the case of a 52-year-old female patient first treated for abdominal B lymphoma which recurred 13 years later in the nasopharynx after a complete response to initial treatment.</p><p>The patient complained of rhinolalia and bilateral purulent rhinorrhea. Chemotherapy controlled the lesion.</p><p>Thus we must consider a second nasopharyngeal location of NHML in cases of nasopharyngeal signs with associated cervical lymph nodes.</p>
