Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) is a rare cancer of B-lymphocyte origin typically found in the gastrointestinal tract within the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. EMZL accounts for 5% of all non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and has been reported to affect the central nervous system in several select case reports. Here, we describe a rare case of EMZL presenting as an isolated skull mass, and review current management of EMZL. To our knowledge, this is the first reported patient of isolated EMZL of the skull.
结外边缘区淋巴瘤(EMZL)是一种罕见的起源于B淋巴细胞的癌症,通常发生在黏膜相关淋巴组织内的胃肠道。EMZL占所有非霍奇金淋巴瘤的5%,并且在一些精选的病例报告中已有累及中枢神经系统的报道。在此,我们描述了一例表现为孤立性颅骨肿块的罕见EMZL病例,并回顾了EMZL的当前治疗方法。据我们所知,这是首例报道的颅骨孤立性EMZL患者。
