Classic central nervous system Hodgkin lymphoma masquerading as left sphenoid wing meningioma- A case report.
International Journal of Surgery Case Reports 2024 Februrary 29
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Classic Hodgkin Lymphoma with an incidence of 2-3 cases per 100,000 population affects the Central Nervous System in 0.02 % of cases (Gerstner et al., 2008; Brice et al., 2021; Morawa et al., 2007). CNS lymphoma, contributing to 0.22 % of Central Nervous System tumors, is the uncommon extra-nodal manifestation of Hodgkin's Disease (Brice et al., 2021; Henkenberens et al., 2014). It affects the nervous system secondary to systemic lymphoma or the relapse of the disease (Gerstner et al., 2008). Only 17 cases of CNS lymphoma are reported which were limited to the CNS at the time of diagnosis (Paul et al., 2017). Only two cases of Dural-Based Hodgkin Lymphoma were reported in the literature (Paul et al., 2017).
CASE PRESENTATION: We are reporting the third case of dural-attached extra-axial secondary CNS Hodgkin Lymphoma in a 33 years old female, which appeared and was operated as Left Sphenoid Wing Meningioma.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Only 17 cases of CNS lymphoma are reported which were limited to the CNS at the time of diagnosis (Paul et al., 2017). Only two cases of Dural-Based Hodgkin Lymphoma were reported in the literature (Paul et al., 2017). Our case consists the third case of dural attached Classic CNS Hodgkin lymphoma and the first case of Classic CNS Hodgkin Lymphoma locating in the Sphenoid Wing.
CONCLUSION: It is important to differentiate CNS Hodgkin Lymphoma from other types of brain tumors especially when it resides in an unusual location because the treatment of CNS Hodgkin Lymphoma is mainly combined chemo-radiotherapy than surgical intervention.
