Primary effusion lymphoma or body cavity based lymphoma is a form of large B-cell lymphoma which usually presents as serous effusions without detectable tumor masses. It is universally associated with human herpesvirus-8 also known as Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus. This condition, so far, has been reported in the body cavity effusions that include pleura, peritoneum, and pericardium. We report a case of primary effusion lymphoma which has involved the cerebrospinal fluid. To our knowledge, this is the first case of PEL reported in the cerebrospinal fluid.
原发性渗出性淋巴瘤或体腔淋巴瘤是一种大B细胞淋巴瘤，通常表现为浆液性渗出液，无可检测到的肿瘤肿块。它普遍与人类疱疹病毒8型（也称为卡波西肉瘤疱疹病毒）相关。迄今为止，这种情况已在包括胸膜、腹膜和心包膜的体腔积液中报道。我们报告了一例累及脑脊液的原发性渗出性淋巴瘤病例。据我们所知，这是首例报道的累及脑脊液的原发性渗出性淋巴瘤病例。
