Article Synopsis
- Primary central nervous system lymphoma is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that can show a unique "mirror type" appearance in imaging studies, making diagnosis challenging.
- A case study of a 65-year-old woman with symptoms including headaches and memory loss led to neuroimaging revealing two equidistant lesions suggestive of malignancy, ultimately confirmed by biopsy.
- The presence of multiple lesions in primary CNS tumors like lymphomas necessitates prompt diagnosis and treatment due to their potential severity and impact on neurological function.
