Popis: Differentiating between Wegener's granulomatosis and other destructive centrofacial lesions often is difficult for clinicians and pathologists. It has become more confusing since what until now was known as "malignant centrofacial granulomatosis" seems to be a peripheral T-cell lymphoma. The case of an 83-year-old male recently diagnosed as angiocentric peripheral T-cell lymphoma which presented as a destructive centrofacial process is reported. The probable pathogenic role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is highlighted.
