  • Title: Hodgkin's disease presenting with isolated craniospinal involvement.
    Author: Bender BL, Mayernik DG.
    Journal: Cancer; 1986 Oct 15; 58(8):1745-8. PubMed ID: 3756795.
    Abstract:
    A 34-year-old man presented with tumor of his cervical spinal meninges and bone and the dura over the right frontal lobe, which was shown on biopsy to be Hodgkin's lymphoma. Extensive noninvasive evaluation failed to reveal any other sites of disease. Central nervous system involvement with Hodgkin's disease is extremely rare and is almost always a late complication in patients who have widely disseminated disease in the usual nodal sites. The current patient is unique in that his initial symptoms were due to involvement of the central nervous system and he had no evidence of Hodgkin's disease elsewhere.
