Summary:Sinonasal lymphoma is a rare clinical entity. Three main subtypes exhibit different clinical patterns and treatment outcomes. We report the first case of a B‐cell lymphoma in a patient without any previous history of nasal surgery, trauma or drug use, who presented to our center with a nasal septal perforation. Laryngoscope, 133:2871–2873, 2023 Sinonasal lymphoma is a rare clinical entity. B‐cell lymphoma usually presents in the paranasal sinuses and is less aggressive than T‐cell or NK/T‐cell lymphomas.
