A Rare Presentation of Primary Frontotemporal Cerebral Lymphoma: A Case Report

2024Open accessMohamed I University

Abstract

Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma is a rare and aggressive form of extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, limited to the brain, eyes, spinal cord, or leptomeninges without systemic involvement. This group of malignant tumors is characterized by a particular diagnostic, therapeutic, and evolutionary profile compared to other types of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. We report a case of a young patient treated in our university hospital center for primary cerebral lymphoma who benefited from primary chemotherapy and then consolidation radiotherapy with good disease control and good tolerance.
