Follicular lymphoid hyperplasia of the palate: case report and literature review.

Follicular lymphoid hyperplasia (FLH) of the palate is a very rare benign, proliferative process, with only 20 cases published so far in the English language literature. We describe a case, in a 55-year-old Caucasian female, who developed a swelling in the left posterior hard palate. Bony involvement was absent.
