Key Clinical Message Not only diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma is a malignancy, but also is initially and orally diagnosed in early stages. However, it could be misdiagnosed with other oral pathologies. However yet, early diagnosis is still crucial for the prognosis, morbidity, and mortality in such cases. Additionally, whole‐body scanning with positron emission tomography/computed tomography should be performed for diagnosis and treatment process.
