B cell lymphoma with features intermediate between diffuse large B cell lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma (DLBCL/BL) is a new lymphoma entity which is recognized in the current World Health Organization (WHO) classification (2008). We report a case of a primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) with findings consistent with DLBCL/BL. It is characterized by a very aggressive clinical course, and a widespread multifocal involvement of the CNS. Our case shows that a DLBCL/BL can manifest in the CNS alone without any systemic involvement.
具有弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤和伯基特淋巴瘤(DLBCL/BL)之间特征的B细胞淋巴瘤是一种新的淋巴瘤实体,在当前世界卫生组织(WHO)分类(2008年)中得到认可。我们报告一例原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL),其表现与DLBCL/BL一致。它的特点是临床病程非常侵袭性,且中枢神经系统广泛多灶性受累。我们的病例表明,DLBCL/BL可单独在中枢神经系统表现,而无任何全身受累。
