MR Imaging Characteristics of Primary T-Cell Lymphoma of the Cauda Equina: A Case Report and Literature Review
Primary central nervous system lymphoma is a rare form of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and primary T-cell lymphoma of the cauda equina is extremely rare. We describe a case involving a 56-year-old female who presented with low back pain and radiating leg pain for 4 months. MRI of the lumbar s...

| Sumario: | Primary central nervous system lymphoma is a rare form of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma,
and primary T-cell lymphoma of the cauda equina is extremely rare. We describe a case involving
a 56-year-old female who presented with low back pain and radiating leg pain for 4
months. MRI of the lumbar spine revealed an elongated, multinodular intradural lesion of approximately
10 cm from the L4 body to the S2 body level with iso-signal intensity on T1-weighted
imaging, heterogeneous iso- and high-signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging, and a heterogeneous
intense enhancement on gadolinium contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging. A
peripheral T-cell lymphoma of the cauda equina was diagnosed on the basis of immunohistochemical
and T-cell receptor gamma gene rearrangement analysis after intradural biopsy of the
mass. |
