 Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma(ATLL)is induced by human T-cell lymphotropic virus type Ⅰ(HTLV-Ⅰ)infection. A 67-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of diplopia, left exophthalmos, left facial palsy and left cervical lymph node swelling. A mass lesion in the left maxillary sinus extending to the left orbit was revealed on CT scan, and the MRI finding was consistent with an invasive mycosis. Biopsy of the mass was done and the histological diagnosis was malignant lymphoma. Serologically, anti-HTLV-Ⅰ antibody was positive. Southern blot analysis showed monoclonal proliferation of ATLL cells. We diagnosed this case as ATLL.
