Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an uncommon malignancy of B-cell origin that typically involves the brain, eyes, and spinal cord without systemic spread. PCNSL cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, or periventricular region. Isolated leptomeningeal any evidence parenchymal involvement very rare. We present a unusual case presenting as persistent bilateral Bell's palsy trigemin...

Purpose: To describe the long-term outcomes of 2 cases primary autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for treatment central nervous system lymphoma–ophthalmic variant (PCNSL-O) or vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL). Methods: Two and their findings were analyzed. A review histopathology, systemic treatment, multimodal ocular imaging was performed. Results: 52-year-old woman 56-year-old referred ...

Primary central nervous system (PCNSL) T-cell lymphoma is a very rare extra nodal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) tumor arising from the central nervous system. The incidence of this disease is increasing globally in part due to larger numbers of immunocompromised patients. There are no pathognomonic clinical or radiographic features of T-cell PCNSL. Brain biopsy is generally necessary for tissue ...

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare disease which accounts for 1–2 % of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 3–5 % of primary brain tumor lesions. PCNSL of an immunocompetent patient is an uncommon disease, it is estimated at 4 % of new diagnoses of CNS tumors. The prognosis of PCNSL is poor compared to other extranodal lymphomas, with a 5-year survival estimated between 20 and 40 %. ...

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an uncommon extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Its incidence has increased during the last 3 decades and has been reported in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients. Immunocompromised patients are affected at a younger age compared with immunocompetent patients. It presents with raised intracranial pressure and focal neurologic and n...

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an uncommon form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that can affect any part of the brain or spinal cord. The progressive refinement of endocrine tests, as well as improvements in and increasing availability of diagnostic imaging, has led to an increasing number of pituitary masses being diagnosed. In addition, with the appearance of acquired immunodefi...

To the Editor: Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is defined as lymphoma confined to the brain, spinal cord, eye, or leptomeninges. Ocular involvement can be detected in about 20% of PCNSL patients with primary vitreous retinal lymphoma (PVRL), which is generally a high‐grade diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma, being the most common subtype. The incidence of PVRL is extremely low, with ...

Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma is a chronic lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by a proliferation of plasma cells, small lymphocytes, plasmacytoid lymphocytes and the production of monoclonal IgM. Primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSL) are rare non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) that can be found in the brain, leptomeninges, eyes or spinal cord, and are mostly intracerebral. PCNSLs const...
