[A case report of primary central nervous system lymphoma preceded by cerebral and cerebellar lesion diminishing spontaneously: consideration of two brain biopsy at the onset and after two years].

A 57-year-old man suffered a generalized seizure. Brain MRI showed a Gadolinium (Gd) enhanced lesion with massive edema in the left frontal lobe. He received in a brain biopsy a diagnosis of ganglioglioma, probable. After two weeks from the biopsy, brain MRI showed spontaneous remmision of the lesion. Eighteen months after his seizure, a follow-up brain MRI showed a new lesion in the left cerebellar peduncle. However, the lesion also improved spontaneously. After 2 years from the onset, a follow-up examination showed a new lesion in the corpus callosum. At that time even though high dose corticosteroid was given with the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, the lesion enlarged progressively and uveitis occurred at the same time. He received in the second biopsy a diagnosis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma We report a case of primary central nervous system lymphoma preceded by cerebral and cerebellar lesion diminishing spontaneously, with consideration of two brain biopsy at the onset and after two years.
