Abstract
We report a case of unilateral tonsillar lymphoepithelioma with extension into the ipsilateral parapharyngeal space, and we review the clinical, histologic, and radiographic findings of the case. The patient presented with a tonsillar mass that was confirmed on biopsy to be lymphoepithelioma. Computed tomography demonstrated ipsilateral parapharyngeal space involvement. Association with Epstein-Barr virus was not assessed since it does not affect the treatment modality. We also review the literature and discuss the diagnosis and current treatment options.

Her medical history was significant for asthma, hypertension, and mitral valve prolapse. She also recalled an episode of acute tongue swelling during childhood.
