Malignant lymphoma can spread to the central nervous system, causing neurological symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is valuable for detecting this meningeal involvement.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Oncology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • A 64-year-old female patient was diagnosed with malignant lymphoma affecting the pharynx and abdomen.
  • Initial treatment involved chemotherapy and radiotherapy, leading to lymphoma remission.

Observation:

  • Post-treatment, the patient developed central nervous system (CNS) symptoms including euphoria, left facial nerve palsy, right hemiplegia, and micturition disturbance.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated diffuse dural thickening and subdural fluid collection.

Findings:

  • Analysis of the subdural fluid identified it as an exudate.
  • A biopsy of the dura mater revealed a fibrin clot containing lymphoma cells and neutrophils, despite a normal dura.

Implications:
