    Abstract:
    This report concerns a 79-year-old man with intravascular malignant lymphoma who was admitted to our hospital for slight right side hemiparesis. Radiological examinations showed a mass in the left parietal lobe, and a brain biopsy revealed a B-cell type malignant lymphoma. The tumor could not be detected on magnetic resonance images following focal radiotherapy, but the patient died of acute progressive pneumonia about 3 months after the onset of symptoms. An autopsy was performed. Microscopic examinations disclosed proliferation of neoplastic cells in the small and medium-sized blood vessels of the adrenal glands, liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys and epididymis. A diagnosis of intravascular malignant lymphoma was established on the bases of these autopsy findings.
