Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a lymphoma of NK or T-cell lineage strongly associated with Epstein-Barr virus (citation needed)
The lineage (NK or T-cell) has no clinical significance (citation needed)
ENKTL is a destructive angiocentric disease characterized by vascular destruction and necrosis (citation needed)
It can be clinically divided into nasal and non-nasal types (citation needed)

==Epidemiology / Prevalence==
ENKTL is most prevalent in East Asia and Latin America. It represents less than 1% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the United States, with the highest incidence among Asian Pacific Islanders and Hispanic populations<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Haverkos|first=Bradley M.|last2=Pan|first2=Zenggang|last3=Gru|first3=Alejandro A.|last4=Freud|first4=Aharon G.|last5=Rabinovitch|first5=Rachel|last6=Xu-Welliver|first6=Meng|last7=Otto|first7=Brad|last8=Barrionuevo|first8=Carlos|last9=Baiocchi|first9=Robert A.|date=2016-12|title=Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL-NT): An update on epidemiology, clinical presentation, and natural history in North American and European cases|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5199232/|journal=Current hematologic malignancy reports|volume=11|issue=6|pages=514–527|doi=10.1007/s11899-016-0355-9|issn=1558-8211|pmc=5199232|pmid=27778143}}</ref>.

Common clinical presentations of nasal-type ENKTL include nasal mass, obstruction, and bleeding.

==Sites of Involvement==
Most cases of ENKTL are nasal type, meaning they involve the upper aerodigestive tract. Extranasal ENKTL may involve the skin, testis, and gastrointestinal tract<ref name=":0" />. Bone marrow involvement is uncommon<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Wong|first=K. F.|last2=Chan|first2=J. K.|last3=Cheung|first3=M. M.|last4=So|first4=J.

==Morphologic Features==
==Morphologic Features==
*Diffuse lymphomatous infiltrate composed of small, medium, or large and anaplastic cells (or a mix of small and large cells). The cells have irregularly folded nuclei and moderate pale cytoplasm.
*Loss of mucosal glands.
*Angiocentric and angiodestructive growth pattern.
*Coagulative necrosis and apoptosis.
*Mitotic figures.
Pitfalls:
*Mucosal ulceration and superimposed inflammation can mimic an inflammatory process, particularly in less aggressive cases<ref>Devins, K., Schuster, S.J., Caponetti, G.C. ''et al.'' Rare case of low-grade extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, arising in the setting of chronic rhinosinusitis and harboring a novel N-terminal ''KIT'' mutation.

==Immunophenotype==
==Immunophenotype==
The majority of cases are positive for cytoplasmic CD3ε, CD2, granzyme B, and TIA-1. Most ENKTLs are of NK-lineage and express CD56. Cases of T-lineage express T-cell receptor (TCR) and show clonal TCR gene rearrangements. All cases are EBV positive by in situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER). Other markers that may be expressed include HLA-DR, CD25, pSTAT3, CXCL13, IRF4/MUM1, CD16, Fas, FasL, MATK, and CD30<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Li|first=Shaoying|last2=Feng|first2=Xiaoli|last3=Li|first3=Ting|last4=Zhang|first4=Shuang|last5=Zuo|first5=Zhuang|last6=Lin|first6=Pei|last7=Konoplev|first7=Sergej|last8=Bueso-Ramos|first8=Carlos E.|last9=Vega|first9=Francisco|date=2013-01|title=Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type: a report of 73 cases at MD Anderson Cancer Center|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23232851|journal=The American Journal of Surgical Pathology|volume=37|issue=1|pages=14–23|doi=10.1097/PAS.0b013e31826731b5|issn=1532-0979|pmid=23232851}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Jhuang|first=Jie-Yang|last2=Chang|first2=Sheng-Tsung|last3=Weng|first3=Shih-Feng|last4=Pan|first4=Shien-Tung|last5=Chu|first5=Pei-Yi|last6=Hsieh|first6=Pin-Pen|last7=Wei|first7=Chih-Hsin|last8=Chou|first8=Shih-Cheng|last9=Koo|first9=Chiew-Loon|date=2015-02|title=Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type in Taiwan: a relatively higher frequency of T-cell lineage and poor survival for extranasal tumors|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25554090|journal=Human Pathology|volume=46|issue=2|pages=313–321|doi=10.1016/j.humpath.2014.11.008|issn=1532-8392|pmid=25554090}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Pongpruttipan|first=Tawatchai|last2=Sukpanichnant|first2=Sanya|last3=Assanasen|first3=Thamathorn|last4=Wannakrairot|first4=Pongsak|last5=Boonsakan|first5=Paisarn|last6=Kanoksil|first6=Wasana|last7=Kayasut|first7=Kanita|last8=Mitarnun|first8=Winyou|last9=Khuhapinant|first9=Archrob|date=2012-04|title=Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, includes cases of natural killer cell and αβ, γδ, and αβ/γδ T-cell origin: a comprehensive clinicopathologic and phenotypic study|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22314189|journal=The American Journal of Surgical Pathology|volume=36|issue=4|pages=481–499|doi=10.1097/PAS.0b013e31824433d8|issn=1532-0979|pmid=22314189}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Jaffe|first=E.
