Paranasal sinus lymphoma (PNL) is a rare presentation of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with a natural history different from other types of lymphoma. The maxillary sinus is the most common paranasal sinus involved in NHL. Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare complication of PNL. In this case report, we present a case of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBL) that developed in the left maxillary sinus and relapsed as a left frontal brain mass after four years of disease remission.
鼻窦淋巴瘤(PNL)是结外非霍奇金淋巴瘤(NHL)的一种罕见表现形式,其自然病程与其他类型的淋巴瘤不同。上颌窦是NHL最常累及的鼻窦。中枢神经系统(CNS)受累是PNL的一种罕见并发症。在本病例报告中,我们呈现了一例弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤(DLBL),该病例最初发生于左上颌窦,在疾病缓解四年后复发为左额叶脑肿块。
