This paper reports a pseudolymphoma that developed in the buccal region of a 47-year-old male. With an indolent swelling in the right cheek as his chief complaint, he was seen at our hospital. A tumor mass was palpable beneath the skin, about 1 cm below the edge of the orbita. A tumor shadow of uniform density was indicated on CT scan. The tumor mass was completely extirpated under local anesthesia. Since there was a pathological diagnosis of pseudolymphoma, which has a tendency to become atypia, it was irradiated postoperatively with a dose of 60Co at 36 Gy. Local recurrence or appearance of the tumor mass in other regions has not been occurred d u ring the follow-up of 4 years and 6 months.
