Primary Malignant Lymphoma of the Brain: A Case Report

Primary malignant lymphoma is very rare and represents less than 1.5% of all intracranial neoplasms. The authors have experienced a case of primary malignant lymphoma of the brain in a 66 year-old woman who presented with presistent headache, nausea and generalized weakness. Brain CT scan demonstrated typical deep seated tumor masses in the right temporal and left frontal lobes with strong contrast enhancement. We obtained a good result after surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy and report our case with review of the articles.
