Abstract

We describe a case of malignant lymphoma （stage I E） in the mandible that underwent Cyberknife therapy.The patient was a 71-year-old man who had pain of the lower gingiva. Intraoral examination revealed a slight swelling at the buccal gingiva in the left lower canine region. Radiographic examination showed a radiolucent lesion in the apical region. Under a clinical diagnosis of chronic apical periodontitis, extraction was performed for biopsy. The histopathological diagnosis was a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma （DLBCL）. We performed Cyberknife therapy （30 Gy/5 sections） of the mandible. The patient has shown no signs of recurrence for 5 years 1 month after therapy.
