Extranodal follicular dendritic cell sarcoma of the tonsil: An extremely rare clinical entity

: Follicular dentritic cell sarcomatous neoplasms originate from dendritic cells contained within the lymph nodes. In extranodal location, these neoplasms, are rare clinical entities, and even more so, their location in the head-neck region is extremely rare. Only 17 cases of primary dendritic cell sarcoma of the tonsil are reported in the literature at present. Being such a rare entity, histopathological diagnosis can be complex and requires great expertise and proper immunohistochemical analysis [1]. We present a case of a 48-year-old young man diagnosed with follicular dendritic cell sarcoma of the tonsil who underwent, probably for the first time in the literature, transoral robotic surgical resection.
