The various types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma are divided into high grade and low grade.Case report: An 8 year old male patient reported with complain of swelling and scar over right side of lower jaw.

Swelling was hard, fixed and tender on palpation. Incisional biopsy of the jaw lesion on routine histopathology showed large round cells with a centrally placed hyperchromatic nuclei resembling lymphocytes giving a picture of a hematolymphoid neoplasm. The tumor cells were positive for LCA, CD20 & PAX5, with a ki67 index >80% and BCL2 focally positive. No immunoreactivity noted for MPO, MyoD1, Tdt and synaptophysin.Conclusion: Based on histopathological and immunohistochemical findings, a final diagnosis of High grade B-cell lymphoma and extraoral keloid was given.
