Lymphomas are a diverse group of neoplastic disorders arising primarily in lymph nodes. They have been majorly classified into Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin lymphomas(NHL). NHL can be of B, T and Null cell categories having further subtypes based on their histological characteristics. Lymphomas can be nodal and extra nodal. The head and neck area are the second most common site of extra nodal lymphoma, with tonsils being the most common site of involvement; other sites include the nasopharynx and tongue base. B- Cell type being the most common type. Predominantly occurs in elderly. Presentations depends on the site involved. Various modalities like surgical treatment, chemotherapy (or) radiotherapy is available. Each stage has varied survival rates and prognosis and responses to the treat depending on the patient factors. In this paper,  we report two cases of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma of tonsil, where the preoperative clinical diagnosis and radiological diagnosis was inconclusive and final diagnosis was established based on histopathological examination.
