Childhood primary parotid non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is a rare but well-recognized entity in the literature. Perineural extension of masses between the head and neck and cranium, although rare, has also been well documented. We report the first documented case, to our knowledge, of a left-sided primary parotid NHL in a child with direct intracranial extension through the foramen rotundum. The mass arose in a 1 1/2-month period. Following evaluation by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, diagnostic procedures (first, fine-needle aspiration and, subsequently, an open biopsy) were undertaken. We discuss the case report and briefly review childhood NHL and perineural metastasis.
儿童原发性腮腺非霍奇金淋巴瘤（NHL）在文献中是一种罕见但已得到充分认识的疾病。头颈部与颅骨之间肿块的神经周围蔓延，虽然罕见，但也有充分的文献记载。据我们所知，我们报告了首例有记录的儿童左侧原发性腮腺NHL，该肿瘤通过圆孔直接向颅内蔓延。肿块在1个半月的时间内出现。在通过计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像进行评估后，进行了诊断程序（首先是细针穿刺，随后是开放活检）。我们讨论该病例报告，并简要回顾儿童NHL和神经周围转移。
