An 11-yr-old male was assisted during all treatment of chemotherapy against Hodgkin's lymphoma in the dental sector of a hospital of reference of João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil. The Oral Assessment Guide was applied by a calibrate examiner and was observed the emergence of ulcerative lesions on the labial mucosa emerged on two different periods (D15- primary cycle; D15-second cycle) and the major values of oral mucositis were verified in D1 e D15 periods of second cycle of chemotherapy. Monitoring oral side effects during antineoplastic therapy could prevent severe oral complications and avoid to associate systemic complications.
