Malignant lymphoma initially presenting with symptoms and signs of spinal cord compression are a rare occurrence. We present 20 cases of spinal epidural lymphoma first diagnosed on laminectomy biopsy specimens with a review of clinical data and histology, as well as an immunohistochemical study to determine the immunophenotype of these lymphomas. Eighteen cases were typed as B cell lymphomas, 2 as T cell lymphomas.
恶性淋巴瘤最初表现为脊髓压迫症状和体征的情况较为罕见。我们报告20例经椎板切除活检标本首次诊断为脊髓硬膜外淋巴瘤的病例，回顾其临床资料和组织学情况，并进行免疫组化研究以确定这些淋巴瘤的免疫表型。18例为B细胞淋巴瘤，2例为T细胞淋巴瘤。
