This article reports a rare case of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) found in a patient with thyroid cancer after surgery.
The patient was initially misdiagnosed with brain metastases, and the diagnosis of PCNSL was later confirmed by pathology.
The analysis of this case and review of the relevant literature explores the possible mechanisms of the coexistence of thyroid cancer and PCNSL, as well as their diagnostic, differential diagnostic, and therapeutic challenges.
The article suggests a possible correlation between the coexistence of multiple cancers and autoimmune diseases and emphasizes that disease cannot be only considered in a monolithic way.
本文报道了1例甲状腺癌术后患者发生原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL)的罕见病例。
该患者最初被误诊为脑转移瘤,后经病理确诊为PCNSL。
对该病例的分析及相关文献回顾探讨了甲状腺癌与PCNSL共存的可能机制,以及它们在诊断、鉴别诊断和治疗方面的挑战。
本文提示多种癌症与自身免疫性疾病共存之间可能存在关联,并强调不能单一地看待疾病。
