    Introduction: Non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas are divided into B-cell lymphomas and T-cell lymphomas, and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, is in the latter group. Case report: A 30-year-old male patient, for six months, progressively and with an insidious onset, has had a right-sided cervical tumor with progressive growth. He came to a head and neck outpatient clinic where the main signs and symptoms detected were right cervical lymphadenopathy, B-symptoms, and a tumor in the nasopharynx affecting the roof, posterior wall, and lateral wall. The patient moves with assistance and has an enlarged, erythematous warm right supraclavicular lymph node conglomerate. In addition, he has some ulcerated areas with serous drainage. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and treatment of this disease are the only tools to improve these patients’ poor prognosis and severely deteriorated quality of life.
