Abstract:
We report on a case of Hodgkin's disease, revealed in a 52 year-old woman by isolated neurological signs. Sciatica is an uncommon pattern of discovery that is particularly misleading. It may lead to a delayed diagnosis all the more prejudicial since it discloses an advanced stage of the disease. The neurological involvement is always associated with a bone lesion. This latter can be discovered at an early stage through magnetic resonance imaging.
