Systemic T-cell lymphoma presenting with neurologic symptoms is infrequently reported in immunocompetent children.

These findings suggest that early neurologic involvement of T-cell lymphoma in immunocompetent children is underrecognized and that central nervous system involvement in these patients should be more thoroughly investigated.
