Pulmonary pneumatoceles are thin-walled, air-filled cysts that develop within the lung parenchyma.

This is regrettable, especially in cases where the collections include historic specimens and endangered species.

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma can induce central nervous system manifestations, including strokes, due to small-vessel occlusion caused by lymphoma cells. However, involvement in large-sized vessels is rare. Here, we present an unusual autopsy case of an 88-year-old man showing a rapid transition from multiple strokes due to small vessel occlusion, typical of intravascular lymphoma, to progressive embolic strokes caused by the occlusion of major cerebral arteries.
