Abstract:
A 42-year-old man diagnosed to be HIV positive and on highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART), presented with double vision and gradual drooping of the left eyelid. He had left 3rd cranial nerve palsy and partial right lower-motor-neuron facial palsy. CT of the PNS revealed soft tissue filling the right maxillary sinus antruin. Further workup showed the mass to be an NK/T cell lymphoma.
