Primary T-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (CNS) is an extremely rare tumour. The Human T-cell lymphoma virus type 1 associated Adult T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia (ATLL) often involves the CNS during its course but disease limited to the CNS is exceptional. Using clinicopathological and molecular biological information we describe a case of primary CNS ATLL with infiltration of the brainstem associated with an atypical Herpes simplex encephalitis the distribution of which corresponded to that of the tumour. CNS involvement in ATLL is discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.
